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.
Bit of a 'tear rolling down the corner of the eye' moment here actually...
We still remember going down the road and getting a few copies of that first Giant Swan record from Howling Owl HQ a few years back, when it was still very much only a 'Bristol thing'... That one was a pretty raw recording, mic'd up straight to the amplifiers during a live session of theirs.
Then of course there was their first 'proper' record with them for FuckPunk -
although they did later say that they felt this was still fairly 'proto' to them...
But either way, 'Earn' is a killer that will always stay dear to us, and we feel nice about the fact that we probably introduced a bunch of you to these special people and their music.
So, without delay, and probably no further introduction needed - as you all probably are well aware of these two now - Giant Swan have come forward with their first album, released good & proper on their own imprint KECK!
Loaded up with 10 tracks in inimitable, infectious, weird, wonderful and utterly HEAVY Giant Swan style, this album is a great representation of their fluid, raw & up for it sound palette. A sound they have built over the course of the years, touring relentlessly across the world, nurturing and furthering a special dynamic between the two of them... Although countless years of friendship and band-mate time as part of The Naturals of course play a big part here too - this is something that no amount of hardware or musical knowledge can really replicate in the same way - between the two, it's about this energy, an undeniable one, a real force.
Loaded up with fx units, drum machines, microphone and a whole heap of nifty performance skills from the two - anyone who's seen them play live, will know that no one does it quite like them.
The self-titled LP moves from freakzone ambience to loud-as-hell soundsystem raucous, from big-room techno with extra lashings of 'fuck u', through to tongue-in-cheek club destruction (not deconstruction, just destruction... it's up to us to pick up the pieces and scramble our minds back together here).
Like being stuck with your head in the speakerbox, hands in the air, high as a kite - big childish grin on the face.
...Come on then!
