They were all inspired by the godfathers of electronica Kraftwerk.
But some bands were almost punk before they were electronica.
Gary Numan and Ultravox were punk/alternative rock in 76-78 before they made electronic music. The New Wave movement began as a smaller brother to the punk movement, but soon become bigger and more dominated by synth pop and futurists.
