Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (born Guillaume Emmanuel Paul de Homem-Christo on February 8, 1974)[1] is a founding member of the French house music duo Daft Punk, along with Thomas Bangalter. The pair met when they were in school together in 1987 and became interested in dance music after going to a club in 1992. De Homem-Christo is also a co-founder of the group Le Knight Club. The band was formed by he and Éric Chedeville, the latter of whom is from Pumpking Records. They are also the founders of the Crydamoure (a variation of the French "cri d'amour" or "cry of love" in English) record label. De Homem-Christo is credited for designing the Daft Punk logo in the liner notes of Homework.

He produced Sébastien Tellier's 2008 album titled Sexuality.[2]
