How to use the reserve function
If you'd like to purchase items from our site but want to save money on shipping costs, you can use our reserve function to combine your orders over an unlimited period of time, and ship them together for one combined shipping price when you are ready.
Just hit the 'reserve' button at the checkout page as your shipping option when you've finished making your order, and your order will automatically be held in reserve here until you are ready for us to ship everything to you.You can keep as many orders in reserve with us via our site as you like, until you are ready to ship. Just send us an email when you are ready to ship your reserve orders, and we will get in touch with the combined shipping price, or ship for free if you have exceeded the minimum order amount for free shipping to your address.
Can the reserve function be used to get free shipping? Yes - If your combined order total is more than £50 within the UK, over £150 within the EU, or over £225 worldwide, we'll ship your order to you via courier service, for free.
Here's a step by step guide to using it:
1. Click on the account icon to log into your account.
If you don't have an account, please click 'create account' to make one. If you had an account on the old RWDFWD site, please create a new one with the same email address used on the old site - this will ensure your previous orders are brought through to your new account.
2. Add records to your cart as normal.
3. When you're ready to check out, select 'ship'.
4. Then select 'Reserve items' on the shipping method list, then continue to payment.
5. Once payment is complete, your order will show in your account as 'unfulfilled'. We will have put all the products aside in reserve for you to combine with other orders and ship later in bulk.
6. When you're ready to ship all the items you have in reserve, email us on info@rwdfwd.com and we will calculate the shipping due and arrange for payment to be taken.
7. Sit tight and wait for your records to arrive in the post!

EU Order info
Unfortunately, the UK is no longer part of the EU - This means that certain shipments sent to addresses there from us may be subject to tax and / or import duty - All orders sent from RWDWD are sent ‘DDU’ - That is, duty unpaid - any import tax and/or duty is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
If you would like to use our reserve function to group several orders into one large shipment, we can arrange for it to be sent tax and duty pre-paid so you don’t have to worry about it at a later date - Contact us for more information.
Get familiar with the LoversDedicationStation.
As regular RwdFwd visitors will know, we have been avidly following the mysterious developments of the SeekersInternational sound, ever since we got an email about a small run of self-released 7"s a few years ago.
Over the years, SKRS has gone from strength to strength, building his unique sound with new twists and turns, melting minds with his works for NoCorner, Boomarm Nation, Digitalis and also on the freshly groomed, LDN-based Bokeh imprint.
With LoversDedicationStation, SKRS walks his own skewed path of woozy and seductive frequency, blurring the ingreditents along the way. It's a totally unique set of jams, but a few reference points are perhaps Dam Funk style synth jams, late 80's Lovers Rock a la Dennis Bovell or Sly & Robbie, Radiophonic Workshop experimentalism and perhaps even a more woozy and weirdly seductive tape-warpled soul & demeanour of Prince... That's our guess anyway.
Kicking off like a ride through an imaginary radio frequency dial on a US / British Columbian shores, with late night requests and sugary voices coating the haze of smoked out dancehall & boogie rhythms in radio soundclash style, the LP continues it's unpredictable path seamlessly via a heap of well-placed vocal snippets, straight up flexible synth bogle jams and spaced out dub ambience... As the disc progresses, we are led through more reduced dubwise soundscapes and the lingo takes on a familiar JA tone along with some good ol' UK accents in there. This change of accents along with the alternating rhythm and soundscapes really adds to the listening experience, it's so easy to drift off into far corners of mind and memory when this one is on full blast.
The loops range from frantic and unhinged, to weightlessly subtle and deeply grooving, but it's perhaps the endless range of skewed vocal source material that makes this LP so extremely immersive.
It's like a mind-warping journey through film, radio, and most importantly the imaginative sonic mesh from the SKRS lab. No one does it quite like SeekersInternational.
After having listened to this one from start to finish, placed the needle back at the edge and done the same thing once more, we have to say that this is definitely high up on the list for best LPs of the year so far.
The clips won't do it justice... Bag this, strap one up and lean back - you're in for a ride!
