I Monster is a British electronic music group, comprising Sheffield based producers Dean Honer and Jarrod Gosling. They formed in 1997, & released their debut album These Are Our Children. However, due to Honer being involved with hitmakers All Seeing I, it was not until 2001 that they released their first single, "Daydream In Blue", a remix of The Gunter Kallmann Choir's version of The Wallace Collection's "Daydream".
The song was originally released on 7" on Honer's own record label Cercle Records, which he founded with Add N to (X)'s Barry Seven. It was later re-released with a new mix on Instant Karma (in association with their own label Twins of Evil); which has also released material from Kings Have Long Arms and Mu Chan Clan. The song also featured on episode 3 of season 1 in the BBC Television television drama Hustle.
They released their acclaimed second album Neveroddoreven in 2003, which was re-released with a new sleeve in 2004. The band are regular guest DJs across the country, and have played live shows in London & at various European music festivals. Part of their live band is made up of Fred de Fred & Marion Benoist from The Lovers, on guitar and vocals respectively.
I Monster and their label, Twins of Evil, are both named after horror films.
