AFAIK, Strictly went to the wall around 1995 or early 1996. It made a bit of a comeback releasing a few Todd Terry tracks in 1997/98, but they were crap.

Pity, as when they were releasing Mood2Swing, MAW, Kerri Chandler, they were without doubt the worlds number one Independant house label. In fact its arguable that without Strictly, Deep House would never be what it became.

Jebus ... didn't think it happened that far back .... i was on their site about 1-2 years ago ... What i'm after actually is their release listing (everything that they released) ... any ideas where i'd get that ?

Also Guerila records folded about '91 and they had some huge hits aswell ... cant find anything on the net though.

Contact this (http://www.marchurley.com/) guy. he is fairly sound and knows everything that ever is to know about chicao house,a nd house music in general.

Obviously an email to DHN might help, or indeed, the PRC music board has some very clued up people.

Who Keeps Changing .. definitely .. i have it :D
Nightcrawlers ... dunno, it was on promo before it hit the shelves for about ... nearly a year i'd say ... then it was release on 12 in a lime green sleve, kinda like what deConstruction used to do at the time (i'm guessing here, which is poor cos i have it somewhere) and then it was released with MK mixes about a year later .... but yeah it could have been strictly aswell.

Lads, if you're looking for particularly Hard to find records, go to www.gemm.com - basically its a global network of online record stores from the USA and all over Europe. If you can't find what you're looking for here, fugeddaboudit! :cool:

Watch out though when you're buying from US record stores - the postage costs can often end up being more expensive than the record itself, especially if you're buying only 1 or 2 records.
