“Carter’s BPM versions of the original songs are just smashing and I can’t really wait to dive back into them and Hannam is the standout star, Humans Can’t Reboot wouldn’t be the same without her. ” - Brutal Resonance Magazine

“No Tomorrow is a marvellous album that brings synthpop from it's 80's roots from the first few songs and slowly through the course of the album, drifts in to the 90's and then to the early 00's with the remixes.” - Elektro Vox

Simon Carter once again teams up with the wonderful synthwave and sci-fi inspired Megan McDuffee but this time rather than releasing under his Narconic alias he has chosen his Humans Can't Reboot persona due to the vibe and style. Not to worry though as we are still treated to a typical upbeat energetic and trancey Narconic remix, alongside a fantastic 80's inspired Retro version which compliments the futuristic synthwave version.

SIMON CARTER is proud to present NO TOMORROW, the full-length follow-up to LOST SOUL by HUMANS CAN'T REBOOT.

NO TOMORROW contains 11 original vocal tracks, once again featuring the soulful AMY HANNAM on vocal duty. Amy's powerful voice provides the perfect delivery to Simon's expressive, and at times, melencholic lyrics and creations. This is a full-on, non-stop Synthpop-fest, blended with tasty elements of sci-fi and synthwave.

As a nice bonus Simon has given all 11 tracks a DJ-friendly dancefloor "club" treatment, meaning you can expect a little extra BPM and some more EDM oriented sounds.

"I usually prefer original songs over alternate mixes, but “No Tomorrow” is a rare example where the opposite is true. Carter’s BPM versions of the original songs are just smashing and I can’t really wait to dive back into them."

Rounding off the "Lost Soul" album era for Humans Can't Reboot is the "Nuclear Love EP" which is in fact 3 singles and their accompanying remixes rolled into 1 release!

Starting off with the title track, "Nuclear Love" awash with its 80's inspired cold war era electro sounds and themes, comes a dancefloor friendly Club Edit, an oldskool house inspired remix (SD-KRTR), a trance/dance inspired remix (Narconic) and of course the downtempo chillout lounge version.

Next up we have "iDO" a synth-driven drumstep track based on Simon's short sci-fi story of the same name. To accompany this single is a dancefloor/DJ friendly Club Mix, a synthwave inspired remix (SD-KRTR), a trance/dance inspired remix (Narconic) and of course the downtempo chillout lounge version.

Finally we have "Reboot" an emotional synthwave track based on another one of Simon's short sci-fi stories of the same name and also where the band’s name originates from. To accompany this single is a dancefloor/DJ friendly Club Mix, an experimental EDM/synthwave inspired remix (SD-KRTR), a trance/dance inspired remix (Narconic) and of course the downtempo chillout lounge version.

Nuclear Love (Official Video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMi5k6cioHY

iDO (Official Lyric Video): www.youtube.com/watch

This download comes with a copy of the "iDO" and "Reboot" sci-fi short stories. More sci-fi short stories from Simon can be found here: www.smashwords.com/profile/view/sdacarter

We hope to see you for the next chapter of Humans Can't Reboot, as we evolve our sound and explore ever more intriguing ideas and deep emotional themes.

"All broken things can work again
If unplugged for a few minutes or repaired
Humans have no reboot function, we have to let go of the pain
And say to ourselves 'I have what it takes to start again'..."

Humans Can’t Reboot is the brainchild of Simon Carter. Simon is dutifully supported by the fabulous female vocalist Amy Hannam and together they offer you their full range of ‘Unique, Stylish, Futuristic Synthpop’.

Simon has been in and around the electronic music scene for many years and has several other notable projects under his belt. He released a series of successful albums and EP’s alongside Studio-X (Studio-X vs. Simon Carter) on Alfa Matrix Records and also had success with his solo project SD-KRTR (also released via Alfa Matrix Records). More recently his unique sound and blending of genres saw him release a series of dancefloor-friendly instrumental tracks under his old DJ alias of Narconic.

Simon often likes his music to tell stories and 2 of the tracks on this album are based directly from his short stories of the same name (iDO and Reboot). You will find a copy of both of these stories as a part of this digital download in Ebook and PDF format.

We've heard them in their original form and now we get to hear these Humans Can't Reboot tracks in a lower tempo, chillout lounge style with subtle hints of R&B. These tracks really exemplify the amazing quality of Amy Hannam's vocals. By bringing Amy's vocals to the fore and giving the music more of a back seat we get to enjoy Amy's full vocal range and performance. This is a treat not to be missed.

Simon likes his music to tell stories and 2 of the tracks on this album are based directly from his short stories of the same name (iDo and Reboot). You will find a copy of both of these stories as a part of this digital download in Ebook and PDF format.

The 3rd single from Humans Can't Reboot is the poignant title track from the upcming album 'Lost Soul'. This song was written by Simon at his lowest point in life. Therefore it is deep, it is personal and it is also something we believe is rather special. Once again he is supported by the amazing vocal performances from Amy and Cayla (denoted by the Fox on the Vox Version).

The track has also once again been expertly transformed by the equally special Chillout Lounge Version.

'Fading' is the debut single from the eagerly anticipated new vocal music project from Simon Carter (SD-KRTR, Narconic, Studio-X vs. Simon Carter). Humans Can't Reboot is his most expansive and diverse sound yet, focusing primarily on his stylish and unique synthpop intertwined with his heartfelt and passionate lyrics powerfully sung courtesy of the superb female vocalists Amy Hannam and Cayla (denoted by the Fox on the Vox Version).

'Fading' is a nice introduction to a new musical era for Simon Carter, perfectly paving the way for the forthcoming full length album 'Lost Soul'.

This single is accompanied by a club edit to keep dancefloors happy and an old school house remix (SD-KRTR) as well as a more trance influenced remix (Narconic).
