No, Cheeky still exists- there's more info on it in this article, but
here's the gist. Cheeky is essentially too small an outfit for a big
band such as Faithless, because Cheeky only has so much money to go
around whereas major labels get bulk advertising deals etc. So in this
article Rollo describes Cheeky as "inhibitive" to Faithless, or a word
to that effect. A major commercial release like the third Faithless
album will be on a major label. But Cheeky will continue to release all
the other material that it's so far put out.
The Dusted album will be released through Go! Beat though. The reason
for this isn't stated.
