Encyclopedia
Mark Doyle is a UK-based nightclub DJ, A&R
man and record label owner.
In 1999 he founded the record and lifestyle label Hed Kandi
for Jazz FM, and began an extensive marketing campaign within the UK and abroad with the label's house and chill music compilations and club nights in several nightclubs. These efforts helped not only Hed Kandi's strong reputation amongst the dance music scene but also to distinguish the brand as unique with a wide range of house music sub-genre compilations aided by their instantly-recognisable artwork designs by Jason Brooks.
In the summer of 2005, Mark Doyle left Hed Kandi and Jazz FM to set up his own independent music label, Tokyo Project, which launched in October of the same year with club nights and a CD release named Tokyo Project: The Collection. A legal dispute followed and this label was eventually closed down.
Determination saw Mark Doyle to start again and in mid-2006 he set up a new music label, Fierce Angel. This label quickly became a success aided by marketing campaigns in the UK and Ibiza
during the summer and has thus far released four successful CD compilations and presence in many UK nightclubs. Fierce Angel now has its own Radio show slot through The Local Radio Company. It is broadcast live on 26 of their local commercial stations, hosted by Mark himself, between 10 pm and 1 am starting on Saturday evenings.
He also appears as Muddles in a pantomime of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs performed at the Blackwood Miner's Institute, Wales.
