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.
We got the latest & greatest in the form of a ltd edition run of block printed sleeves from Fast Castle, with a five track 12" from label bo$s Gent1e $oul, laced with versatile club muzik for dancefloors and DJz alike, stretching across a wide array of bass-laden palettes, from early UKG to dubstep and grime, techno, baile...
Heated Shot lets haunted early UKG vibes a la Darqwan, Oris Jay, El-B run out over percussive, low swung rhythms. Step into the A2, and Siege Ram goes into charged late 00's dub-heavy dubstep mode, with a bit of Gorgon or Dubkasm style basssline in there perhaps? Next up, Baile in the mix with some icey rolling percussive elements and psychedelic synths on Woads. The next (AOE inspired) title goes by the name of Fortified Walls, and sounds accordingly tough in statue. Towering bass sounds and elasticated distorted synths ping over scratchy percs and stepping kicks. Full halfstep mode on the final cut, alongside none other than Rolex3K, letting things sprawl out in stealthy dubstep mode for the last blast.
A big special mention goes out to the artwork for this one too -
Fast Castle and 100kilo ather unique application of an ancient printing technique - see below!
Edition of extra limited, hand crafted record sleeves. Printed with a laser-cut wood negative and printed on a 1860s mechanical press.
Hand-stamped label -
"Block Printing"’s cover, conceived by Fast Castle’s visual mastermind Jonas, is our most ambitious artwork project to date. It depicts an emblematic circle monograph hinting at prehistoric scenes and ancient legends. Special care went into the production of the DIY-printed record sleeves: Individually crafted on an ancient 1820s mechanical press and printed in a block printing technique from a laser cut wood negative, each of the edition-of-200 vinyl copies is a one-of-a-kind artefact to worship and rinse repeatedly."
