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.
This comp, entitled 'Hypha', kicks off with a real stunner from Young Echo's Sunun -
4DEM combines plucked strings, vocal interjections and tripped out dubwise technique into something that feels very wordly, very intriguing. You kinda know the comp is going to be good already from this point in. Then we got Tokyo's rising star Mars89 at the controls with a piece of signature dancehall brukkage, a lineage that gets ripped to shreds even further with B. Rupp's killer 'homecoming dub'... Listen to those f*cked drums and synth squeals that sound like they were recorded in a bathtub.
Noods then dive us into DIY synth pop / dream pop territories with the Carla Dal Forno-esque 'surround' by 'glas gesture', and deeper into the madness with Nosebag.... A brooding drum track vocal strut that leads perfectly into Kinlaw & Franco Franco's whirlwind terror of feedback guitar signals (or is it?) and helium lyrics for high-minded freaks, by the don of all freaks Franco Franco.
Are we really going to give you a step by step walkthrough? Ah ok, fuck it, why not.
Let's continue:
Next up we got deepest of minimalist dub depths from Narro Farley - delicious amounts of space and a real organic thud of a kick that we can't get enough of actually. Give us a moment while we reload this one...
Ok, let's keep moving with elephant_jams - this one gives us strong CHI Factory vibes, and that can only be a great thing.
Lovely stuff, but don't get too comfortable, because HARRGA aka the combined talents of Miguel Prado and Dali De Saint Paul, team up alongside the 1&only Moor Mother str8 outta Philly, and are clearly here to send a chill down your spine and make you feel each bone connect.
IT'S ALIVE!
This one is fkn mean, even if FOQL might disagree with that sentiment and counteract with this dangerously future-proof tribal drum song, leaving only one last track to finish this wild ride:
Who could do it better than Tara Clarkin Trio? Nothing beats the real-life 'I'm Alive' feeling of drum skin being hit, keys being tapped, echo chambers being sung into... This one is beautiful, and it might pad the bruising from some of the more hard-hitting predecessors in this comp, and instead you'll leave the listening zone feeling like you should probably walk more sexily, and move slower so you can really take in all the sensations.
....Go on then Noods family!
Buy this, and support a whole network of great people doing great things.
