Congrats man! That is THE coolest birth announcement card I've seen! What will be the first record you play him? =P

On the way home from the hospital I had an old tape playing with music by the Thievery Corporation and some more downtempo stuff. Here at home the iPod is on shuffle for almost the whole day with artists like Mum, Plone, Swod, Freescha, BoC, Four Tet, Bibio, Secede, Helios and some jazz + classical. I'll update the playlist every once in a while to highlight a certain period for me and my wife. In the last weeks of the pregnancy I've played Sigur Ros A LOT and I'm not playing anything by them again in the first few months (perhaps the first year), just to increase the flashback effect.

Congrats to you and your wife mate!
Awesome birth announcementcard!!
Do you actually live in that house? Looks terrific!
I also live in an old dutch house (1932).

Thanks Earthbound

Yes, we bought the house the other year and are extremely happy with it... the birth announcement card kind of confirms that eh. The house is from 1904 and the church(clock) is standing right after it.

The right side of the tower is the frontside which you see on the photos and the card.
Our house is just outside to the right of the picture.

Hehe, that church isn't where I'm living at. See previous page for photos of my house.

Thanks asym! Good luck to you both as well!

Thanks man.. well, it's not that strange that you missed it. You aren't that much online anymore as of late

I bet you probably missed the inclusion of your track in the Hidden Channel mix as well?

Mine should be here within a month, also.
