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.
Young Echo's 'Ishan Sound' steps up for his third release as a solo artist, having made a firm make in soundsystem territory with his seminal 'Clash Of The Titans' alongside Ras Addis on Peng Sound Records around a year ago, and following up from his sub-heavy dancehall killers on ZamZam Sounds a few months back...
Ishan Sound comes correct once again with this record, it's a destroyer, made with big speakerboxes and capable subwoofers in mind, no less.
It's the tunes everyone's been talking about since they surfaced on heavy dubplate rotation a while ago, by those few who had their hands on it and still cut real dubplates... one of them being Tectonic label boss 'Pinch' who did just the right thing and signed the record, returning to the label's roots, with minimalist dub pressure and bass meditation at the forefront once again.
Two cuts of Namkha await on the topside, both centred around a pulsating, gut-punching bassline, vibrating square waves and warning shots of panpipe.
Namkha being the first cut and NN Special making up the second version, you can play this selector style and drop the needle for part 2 half way through, or you can mix it in and come back in with the second cut... for deeper soundsystem meditation, just as intended.
Simply tough.
As if the A side didn't do enough damage already, we have fellow Young Echo member 'Kahn' on remix duties for the flip... Injected with extra dread and further low-end pressure, it's a brilliant version, equally as exciting and hard hitting... the real reward comes when those momentous 'gongs' come into play on the second drop...
As much of a look back at the early days of dubstep as it is a fresh take on soundsystem music, in the end of the day -
you can call it what you want, it's just a killer set of tracks... no denying it.
What are you waiting for?
