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.
It's been around 10 years since the Hotline label put out it's first cryptic voicemail teasers and started pasting up road promo around the streets of Bristol. The SIM card and o.g, hotline phone is now dead, but based on the photos of recent sightings which we're attaching here, it seems the street promotion is still a thing, and word on the 19th disc on the label is now out there -
This time along it's Quartz on the buttons with three versatile rollers and stealthy junglist steppers. First up on the A side, we get a concentrated dose of darkside dnb rollige with futuristic atmospherics stretching out like a shadow over drums thundering from the distance. By the time that breakdown shreds it's way into the open space, it's full bassweight immersion, before we head into full charge on the 2nd drop.
On the flip, the tempo reduces and the rhythm opens up in favour of extra intensity and extra doses of energy. On 'Abstract' we get into a proper ruffneck bassline vs snare workout. Here we find undulating synthlines and vocal injections presented in a relentless build of intensity, answered by gnarly shots of bassline and drum sound. This one's the special weapon, if you ask us.
Following a similar path of creeping intensity and undulating forward momentum, 'Pale Tongue' let's eye-diluting subs form a pattern around fully charged synth kicks and twisted bass melodics, proper ghost in the machine type vibes, in the literal sense.
No nonsense, fully deadly dancefloor gear, served up on a loud & proud 12", finally ready to spin at full dynamic range.
Mastered and cut by Lewis at Stardelta Mastering.
