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.
Think DMC turntablist championship meets DADA, a sonic bricolage coaxed from a maze of manipulated decks, delay units, purposefully damaged records - the exploration of the One Year LP presented here for your listening pleasure a sort of DJ screw meets William Burroughs cut up voyage into the very outer-realms of hip-hop, industrial and beyond.
If you're intrigued (you should be) then read on for some words from the Disciples themselves -
'Model Home’s recently released 'One Year' album disassembled by Detroit experimental turntable crew Pure Rave. The productions on 'One Year' were already pretty fractured and abstracted, but these in-house selectors for Wolf Eyes annual Trip Metal Festival take it one step further out-field into a world of locked groove stutter and over-lapping sonics, refracting the original work through a maze of mirrors.
Pure Rave, a collective based in Detroit, Michigan, is an ongoing experiment in "chance dance". Using various prepared turntables, "damaged" records and the occasional drum machine. Real-time experimentation with the goal of hitting your pleasure center for whatever your brain thinks is interesting. For this commission, Disciples were asked to send them two copies of the One Year LP, which they then manipulated live to create the two sides of this mixtape. Each side of the cassette is titled after the respective mission statements of the crews involved, side 1 taking on Model Home’s “a collaborative experiment in liberated sound, vision, and performance“ and on the flip Pure Rave’s “an indeterminate arrangement of patterns and rhythmic sonic collage”.
The All Gone label have also described Pure Rave as “mutant rhythm skips subconscious & subliminal drones archaic synth tones are you paranoid yet? a late night White Castle run turns sour when your favorite burnt techno cdr starts skipping & your date says just take me home please ! so for you it’s back to the smog & chemical perfume of Southwest & Downriver, alone & once again left to your broken devices.”
Broken flow for broken times, the incessant focus on individual rhythmic tics makes listening to the tape akin to taking part in some kind of Ipcress File brainwashing experiment, blasted by white light & ever-returning phrases looming out of inner space.'
