Mark Taylor,[1] professionally known as Royal-T, is a British UK garage and grime DJ and music producer from Southampton.[2] He is signed to Butterz and Rinse Recordings.

Taylor was spotted in 2010 by Butterz label founders Elijah and Skilliam via the website Grime Forum.[3] He later caught the attention of Rinse FM and started a regular 2-hour show on the station. In 2012, as well as remixes for DJ Zinc and Katy B's single Easy Please Me, he released his first album on the Rinse Recordings label.[4] In 2015 he teamed up with DJ Q and Flava D in the DJ/production trio T Q D.[5] He released one more solo single that same year, Shotta, which Mixmag praised as being reminiscent to his earliest work.[6]
