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've been waiting for this one to surface for some time now, having had the lucky chance to soak it up in isolation during lockdown season earlier this year...
And despite the previous indulgence, it's still very, very great to see this in the flesh again now, packed up in a rather tasty sleeve design and pressed up good & proper on a 12" cut by the o.g. Helmut Erler at Dubplates & Mastering.
This record really has come alive now, sprawling out with a range of intricate, yet delicate and quietly focused, highly-personalised rhythm & frequency amalgamations.
Ranging from solemn late night horizontal moods for dimly lit scenes, to fresh-as-a-daisy rhythm flexes, through to time-tripping ambient injections, each track really does feel like a solid piece in itself, and contains its own feeling and purpose.
But it's not just a collection of tracks put together for the sake of it, it really does feel like a proper album that is best listened to as a whole.
This way, you can really sense that each of the songs also work as strong counterparts within a whole, as part of a really quite beautiful tangle of sound, melody, and mood.
We can hear his playful, experimental side at times, channelling a raw grime type energy with complex musique concrete / minimalist sound-art structures. But the high-octane ambience can also retreat like the waves in a tide, to unveil the expanse of the shore into really quite peaceful, ambient figurations - or 'mind-gaze' as he's coined it -Scenes that draw out like vast landscape at 360degrees, or maybe a film score for eyes closed, with borderless, infinite space around you.
And there we have it... 'Contemplative Figuration' - Maybe the title wraps it up best - music for introspection and soul searching, and music for the purpose of satisfying ones intrigue for new sound worlds within these mood figurations -
This is an explorative record, in all senses of the word.
Mastered by Helmut Erler at D&M.
