''Human'' is a 1995 instrumental album released by British musician Gary Numan and music producer Michael R. Smith. It consists of 36 tracks from the 75 that had been written, but were largely unused, for the low-budget 1991 horror/science-fiction movie ''The Unborn.'' Numan recorded the music when he was signed with IRS Records, but that label refused to release it (ironically, in 1988, IRS asked Numan to record an instrumental album to be titled ''No Speak''). In his autobiography, Numan described how the ''Unborn'' project came about: Numan and Smith's music for ''The Unborn'', written in early 1991, was later released as the album ''Human'' in 1995, through Numan's label Numa Records (it was the last commercially available release from Numa; Numan subsequently signed with Eagle Records in 1997). Numan has described ''Human'' as "an hour-long collection of musical ideas, each with a specific mood or atmosphere in mind, not a conventional instrumental album."〔''Praying to the Aliens: An Autobiography'' by Gary Numan with Steve Malins. (1997, André Deutsch Limited), p.255〕 Parts of some of the tracks have subsequently been used in later work by Numan.〔Album liner notes〕 "A Little Lost Soul" is a semi-instrumental version of the ''Outland'' track "Soul Protection"; "Embryo" became the ''Sacrifice'' track "The Seed of a Lie"; "Big Alien" and "Mother" are instrumental versions of the ''Outland'' track "Heart"; "Tidal Wave" became the ''Outland'' track "From Russia Infected"; and "Needles" became the ''Sacrifice'' track "Pray". ==Track listing== All tracks written by Gary Numan and Michael R.
