ROBOTERWERKE went on to release 3 LP's (eRoboterwerkef 1979 on CBS, eFuturistf on RCA and eMetalunaf 1978 - all adorned with spaced out cartoon Furry Freak Brothers style cartoon imagery). Whilst Kraftwerk's music gained international recognition as one of the first electronic acts and founders of modern dance music, ROBOTERWERKE were much more influenced by P-Funk and acts such as Parliament and their sound takes a much more krautrock / leftfield aesthetic. Furthermore, every year the band spent a lot of time in the Caribbeans and heavily influenced by the local eerb supply, the band developed a deep love for the local sound of steel drum music and Soca and from then onwards, they developed their own style of funky disco, electro and Soca.
