Music has always been a passion of mine starting back in 1977 when I was a young D.J on ‘Radio Starline’ every Friday from 7/8pm with Mike D (aka Michael Webster). We eventually extended this to a 2 hour show, playing Soul, Funk and Motown – new tunes then!!

As my name was considered unusual I had to find a D.J name. My DJ name became ‘Mark Doyle’ after a character in a series at the time called ‘The Professionals’………later to be shortened to MD as it still is today. Over the years I have been associated with many unlicensed radio stations, some of these being: South London Radio 1978, Thames City Radio 1980 & Illusion FM 1996/2000.

When Illusion ended I hung up my headphones and the vinyls only came out for personal use and/or parties. In 2011 I was approached by a station called Fresh. It took me a year to decide to give things another ‘go’ and I spent just over a year presenting my kind of music with them in 2012/13. After leaving I contacted Juice Radio FM, who were on the look-out for presenters, as I felt my kind of music was more in sync with their format. And with the merger of Juice in to Cruise here I am now 🙂 playing the same tunes I did when I first started out although now considered ‘Old Skool’…….but in my mind, the best, and I love them just as much now as I did ‘Back in the Day’!!!! I hope to be playing music for many years to come.

All the Best….. MD
