Born in Montreal and raised in Vancouver, Jeremy Inkel is best known as a keyboard player and programmer in Left Spine Down and Front Line Assembly. He is also a freelance recording artist, and can be heard on many releases of his genre.
His career began with little more than a synthesizer and a drum machine, playing underground 'rave' gigs both locally and nationally as Binary Holocaust. While Binary Holocaust was Jeremy's first active electronic project, a physical song is yet to be officially released.
By 2003 Jeremy co-founded Left Spine Down with kAINE D3L4Y and Matt Girvan. Their like-mindedness for punk rock and electronic music brought them together, playing both headlining gigs as well as opening for touring acts in Vancouver. After beginning work on LSD's first album, "Fighting for Voltage" with Chris Peterson, Jeremy was welcomed into Front Line Assembly in 2005, co-writing and producing the full length album "Artificial Soldier" (released in 2006). FLA then brought Jeremy (as well as LSD alumni Jared Slingerland) on tour for Artificial Soldier. They quickly followed up with the remix album Fallout, touring worldwide for 2 years with the group, and co-headlining various festivals such as Mera Luna, Summer Darkness, and Amphi Festival (playing along side bands like Nitzer Ebb, Bauhaus, Apoptygma Berzerk, Bloc Party, VNV Nation, The Killers and others).
He was also in the lineup for FLA to play in Russia for the first time. It was during these tours with FLA that Jeremy was able to introduce the world to his other band, Left Spine Down, via the means of their "Smartbomb" EP released on Synthetic Sounds.
2008 and 2009 saw Jeremy and Left Spine Down open for acts like The Genitorturers, oHGr, The Birthday Massacre, and the Revolting Cocks' North American Lubricatour (with Jim Rose, Blownload and Left Spine Down as guests). It was then when Jeremy began working with 16volt's Eric Powell, providing his services on their new album "American Porn Songs" ("To Hell") and coordinating LSD's appearance on the North American MIDI GHETTO TOUR, which consisted of 33 shows with 16volt and Chemlab in Spring of 2010.
In 2009, Jeremy returned with Front Line Assembly co-writing and producing the new full length album Improvised Electronic Device, and the single Shifting Through the Lens.
The albums were released in 2010. As a result of Jeremy's experience touring with The Revolting Cocks, he enlisted Al Jourgensen to co-produce, mix, and do vocals for the track "Stupidity", alongside the guitar player and singer for 3 Inches of Blood, Justin Hagberg.
