NAPT are a multi award winning British [1] [2] electronic dance music production and DJ duo consisting of Ashley Pope and Tomek Naden. NAPT's productions fall under the umbrella of their self coined N-Funk sound.[3][4]

As well as their extensive solo work NAPT have collaborated with and remixed numerous artists, most notably electro-pop act Kish Mauve, Mercury Prize nominee MJ Cole, US RnB singer Lumidee, British drum and bass MC Skibadee and UK soul legend Mica Paris.[5]

In 2010 NAPT won Best Producer and Best Track at Breakspoll 2010, a repeat of their Best Producer and Best Track wins in 2009, the first time in the history of the awards that the Best Producer and Best Track categories have been won by the same artist in successive years.[6]

NAPT and UK actor and rapper Ashley "Bashy" Thomas released a collaborative single called "Make My Day" in 2010.

In 2011 NAPT launched new label Red Sugar Records as a platform to showcase their N-Funk sound, bring through new artists, notably Dubstep producer Lucian X and collaborate with new artists.
