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.
Here comes the ultimate summer dancehall stylee to knock any incoming winter blues out of the window, with ease - via the powerhouse of good stuff, that is Bokeh Versions.
Make some space (for your wind to waist) for the sounds of RDL Shellah (fka RDL) alongside SEEKEERSINTERNATIONAL aka SKRS on production.
Jeeeeez!
This one comes with pure heart & soul, cool & deadly and smoother than smooth.
There’s a lovers-style sweetness to RDL’s vocals while SKRS’ totally unique riddims take in the kind of buttery soul we love about early cuts from Brandy or Monica, Ashanti or Montell Jordan, early 2000's RnB gold basically, but served with a distinctive jamaican flavour that feels at once contemporary and classic - RDL is on top form here, shooting for the stars and cruising the milky way with a drop-top and a gold watch that tells us 'timeless o'clock, whilst SKRS draws for some of the most straight-up big-hittin' rhythms and melodies we've ever heard come from this philipino-canadian-via-kingston genius cru.
Seriously - stop scratching your chin, and check the mirror for that big smile which will turn up once this music plays on your hifi of choice.
It's time to dress nice and walk even nicer - positive living for a positive life.
And hear this:
What you're seeing here, is another extra juicy fruit from a tree of labour & love -
Roolingz Studio >> Duppy Gun >> Bokeh Versions >> everyone who'll listen & support -
This is a truthfully righteous and fully respect-worthy connection from via the loose, yet strong international family that make this music thing happen.
In case you weren't already aware of the great connection being built between different people from different corners of the world - Music releases, studio's being built and housing for international guests and collaborators in Spanish Town, JA being built as we speak, hearts being touched internationally, with sincerity basically.
It's a message of unity and power in numbers, as equal parts of this WORLD DNA we all contribute to (or work against, if your values aren't set right!).
All you fakers chatting about being inclusive and building communities via twitter or whatever whilst talking down to people, why don't you try take some inspiration from some of the people not dealing with no fussin' or fightin', just doing good IRL and without any conflicting values - this is strictly music, strictly real people, strictly positive movements - real border-crushing community is what we're dealing with here.
In case you didn't clock what we mean here, check these words from BKV, to back up what we're saying, and to understand why we're so extra excited about all this:
"Showcase EP will also mark a new beginning: it’s the first music released out of the new Duppy Gun / Bokeh Versions / Roolings Muzik studio in Dam Head (near Spanish Town, JA). The studio represents a huge step forward for the Duppy collective from it’s humble country beginnings in the Westmoreland outback recording on borrowed gear. The new studio was financed through Bandcamp purchases of cassettes and fundraising tees as well as a few pay-what-you-like crowdfunding days on Duppy Bandcamp, and built by I Jah’s own hands. It shows the real fan-power driving this underground dancehall phenomenon and the fulfilment of I Jahbar’s collective vision (as head of Duppy operations in Jamaica).
The studio, run by I Jah, is a new level of autonomy for the collective, who are now able to voice tracks as quick as they come. It also provides a community hub for a growing group of young vocalists (mentored by I Jah) and global producers from France, Brazil, UK, USA, Japan and beyod. I Jahbar’s even able to earn a bit of cash on the side selling fresh fruit and sandwiches straight from the smoking area to passers by."
Seriously -
this is simply 1 million percent FIRE for heart & soul to shine bright.
Press Play and see for yourself.
