Fierce Angel is a UK-based record label set up in 2006 by DJ Mark Doyle. The label employs a handful of DJ's, sponsors special club night events, and employs a lifestyle marketing approach in regard to its endeavors.
Doyle (as well as several other employees and illustrator Jason Brooks) left the house music label Hed Kandi mid-2005 to start a new label - Tokyo Project. Their first CD, Tokyo Project: The Collection, was released in late 2005. However, fees resulting from a legal dispute with Hed Kandi forced Tokyo Project to close.
Doyle then set up the Fierce Angel label and released their first CD, Tokyo Disco, in early 2006. Subsequent releases have dropped the Tokyo reference altogether.
Fierce Angel have also begun to set up residencies with some nightclubs in the United Kingdom, as well as some summer presence in Ibiza. Currently Fierce Angel hold events in over 20 clubs in the UK and 10 overseas including the United States, Amsterdam, Portugal, Colombia, Norway, Barcelona, Manila, Ibiza and many more.
The Fierce Angel Radio Show is broadcast every week to over 25 countries around the world and is also broadcast on many stations in the UK. The show is presented by Mark Doyle and produced by Fierce Angel DJ George Elliott
Similar to Doyle's releases when with Hed Kandi, the CD compilations are mostly divided into genres with some crossover. All releases contain 3 discs except Fierce Disco V and VI, which contain 2 discs, and A Little Fierce, which contains 1 disc. Digital Angel 2006, Es Vive and A Little Fierce are mixed, while the other releases are unmixed.
House, electronic and disco tracks. The first release inherited the Tokyo title from the defunct Tokyo Project as a way to "connect the dots" between the two companies.
Single disc of mixed summer house tracks in line with Fierce Angel in El Divino Ibiza.
These tracks are often feelgood summery tracks, sometimes Latin-based.
Tracks relevant to different times of day in the Ibiza hotel Es Vive: poolside, evening, afterhours. Each CD is similar to the Beach Angel, Fierce Disco and Fierce Angel albums respectively. These albums are mixed.
The first disc is similar to Fierce Disco; disc 2 is similar to Twisted Disco from Hed Kandi, and disc 3 is a collection of house classics.
