Bob Sinclar, born in 1969, real name Christophe Le Friant (French pronunciation : kʁistɔf lə fʁijɑ̃), is a French record producer, DJ, remixer and co-owner (with DJ Yellow) of the label Yellow Productions.

His first club hit was Gym & Tonic, a track produced by Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk, featuring unauthorized vocals taken from a Jane Fonda fitness tape.

His track "Feel For You", a tribute to french musician Cerrone, from his second album Champs Elysées, hit #9 in the UK Top 40. On track "Darlin'", he worked with vocalist James "D-Train" Williams. Sinclar has also worked under other pseudonyms. Under the aliases The Mighty Bop and Reminiscence Quartet, he has dabbled in hip-hop and acid jazz. He also created the Africanism project, where an ensemble of artists produce house music with a combination of latin, jazz, african and tribal flavors. In 2005 he scored a hit with his single "Love Generation", that reached #1 on the Australian ARIA Singles Charts and the German Media Control Single Charts in 2006. The song was a huge success throughout Europe, also peaking at no. 2 in the Dutch Top 40. The followup hit was "World,
