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.

Brand new, and 100% killer disc on fresh imprint Whip + Lash, straight from our friends in London, at the Rye Wax record shop, headed by Claire Voyant alongside D.E. Thorney & L.J. Horstman of Weird Weather fame -
We're glad to be getting our hands dirty with this one, brought to us in a special delivery in the back of the boot, down the M32 from LDN to BRS.
Weird Weather (of NTS / Going Good / Emotional Especial fame) grace the first disc and kick the label off to a highly promising start, with LASH01.
This one's already had good support from the likes of Jon K (you check that latest TTT tape he did?) and it's been firing off in the underground nicely. There were even some dubplates making the rounds for those who were real quick, and it's good to see the wax in full shape now, ready for the world.
Musically speaking, the Tongue Drum EP straddles the line between rootical, tripped out techno-chug sonics on an industrial wave, with lots of juice for your body to move to, and lots of freak for your brain to zing to. It's a three tracker that traverses various settings & shades, with a binding factor of sub-fuelled, rhythm-driven guttural frequencies & harmonics that will sound extra tasty on a soundsystem.
The A1 'Tongue Drum' should be good enough reason to buy this plate already, with its infectious, low-slung groove and subduedly anthemic synthlines. This one has all the tension, release and forwards momentum you should wish for in a good dancefloor cut - that said, we've been listening to this on the home stereo too, and it's a real good mood!
The B1 - 'Paint' - charges even deeper. Rain-drenched industrial static washes over growling basslines and slowed drum machine chug - there's something tropical about this, but the thunderstorm is never far away.
Let the needle run its course, and you'll be treated to a stripped, utterly menacing version of this same 'Paint' cut.
Hear charcoal grey arpeggios working their way through the shredded drums of the original cut, as ultra low frequency worms it's way into the forefront. This one will have the weather man escape the broadcast in fear of the panic.
A very, very solid record, that is deftly placed for club use for those DJ's who like their music with 'mood', and also a really engrossing, dark but never oppressive, listening disc - from start to finish.
Tip-top tips on this one!
Edition of 300,
hand-stickered in disco bag, with printed centre labels.
