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.
MF001 is here. Disc 1, as part of the long-awaited compilation from one of Berlin's club institutions ran by Franklin De Costa & co - Mother's Finest.
This two-part compilation 12"s from Berlin's Mother's Finest club night turned record label, brings together a whole heap of extended family that have contributed to dancefloor movements at their nights, and now contribute with dancefloor movements for wax, and therefore further movement.
None other than Laurel Halo, Batu, Hodge, Carl Gari, Franklin De Costa, Dynamo Dreesen, Karima F, Mosca & Nico complete the lineups for these pink & blue pieces of excellent vinyl.
The Mother's Finest parties in Berlin are somewhat of a staple for forward thinking dance music in Berlin, centred around techno and more broken, UK rhythms, with the likes of Hodge & DJ Bone being regular residents, and many of the world's most treasured DJ's and producers finding their way into the dark confines of the Griessmuehle club. RIP.
While MF finds a new home, we can revel in these two fine slabs of wax from a whole gang of talented, extended family.
This first disc brings together the tripped out sounds of the shapeshifting Laurel Halo, pure hi-tek rhythm precision from Batu, Moroder-worthy phaser action and Drexciya-worthy rhythms from Carl Gari, a tough & non-stop-stepping dedication to the basement floor of the Griessmuehle from Hodge, and a rave banger that sounds like it was tuned for that soundsystem in upstairs the main room, from the MF bossman Franklin De Costa.
Hard to pick a favourite here! Each cut provides a unique slice of body & brain music, in versatile style, from some of the MF finest out here.
Comes with DL code containing extra tracks too.
Ltd marble blue vinyl, printed sleeve.
