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.
Here we have it -
that mighty, mighty linkup between veteran soundsystem annihilator The Bug, and the most elusive figure to appear out of the UK Garage continuum of the last decade, Burial.
We probably don't need to introduce these artists to you, but for those who aren't aware, The Bug has been supplying heavyweight abstractions that inhale and exhume the dankest of industrial dub & dancehall fumes, supplying a slew of ruffneck 12"s, 7"s and LP's continually since the 90's.
He's also known to pull an unexpected collaboration out of the bag, having collaborated with the likes of Justin Broadrick aka JK Flesh, Grouper, Earth, a host of MC's and deejays such as Miss Red, Flowdan, Riko Dan, Warrior Queen, Burro Banton, and now this unexpected clashing of minds with Burial, of Hyperdub fame...
The two cuts 'Fog' & 'Shrine' were supposed to come out with no prior announcements, but as seems to be the case with these kind of things, the news got leaked and the word is now out.
This disc is the first 12" on The Bug's new Pressure label, the imprint born out of his Berlin-rooted Soundystem night, bringing the heaviest of sonics to an unsuspecting crowd on his own 10-scoop rig.
Now to the music...
We can only share the clip of the A side, but trust us, both cuts are as good, and more, as you wanted them to be when you heard about this collaboration.
Both the A & AA side couple The Bug's signature overweight pressure with the tuneful, delicate & haunting ambience that made Burial shoot from the deepest of underground status into worldwide acclaim with his first two albums on Hyperdub.
It's like the distant wash of a big dub soundsystem dance, circa 5am Brixton, with the sound travelling via London's tube underground tunnels and reverberating in the underbelly of the city with it's ominous, ghostly spheres.
