Robinson received his first production job for the 1991 [[Fear Factory]] album ''[[Concrete (Fear Factory album)|Concrete]]''. Robinson would use the album as a showcase of sorts in helping him land producing slots with other acts, particularly the up-and-coming band [[Korn]].

Robinson is regarded as "The Godfather of [[Nu metal|Nu Metal]]",<ref>{{Cite web |last=Hammerpublished |first=Metal |date=2021-07-13 |title='Nu metal godfather' Ross Robinson is on the new Metal Hammer podcast |url=https://www.loudersound.com/news/nu-metal-godfather-ross-robinson-is-on-the-new-metal-hammer-podcast |access-date=2022-06-07 |website=loudersound |language=en}}</ref> along with Korn frontman [[Jonathan Davis]], despite denouncing the nu metal movement later on for becoming complacent and the newer bands for not expanding on the style that he helped create with Korn's first album, ''[[Korn (album)|Korn]]'' (1994).<ref>{{cite book |last=McIver |first=Joel |title=Nu-metal: The Next Generation of Rock & Punk |year=2002 |publisher=Omnibus Press |isbn=0-7119-9209-6 |pages=123 }}</ref>

Robinson has also been successful in the [[post-hardcore]] genre, producing [[At the Drive-In]]'s album, ''[[Relationship of Command]]'' in 2000, as well as [[Glassjaw]]'s albums, ''[[Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence]]'' (2000) and ''[[Worship and Tribute]]'' (2002). Robinson has also worked with the likes of [[The Cure]] on their [[The Cure (The Cure album)|eponymous album]] (2004) and [[From First to Last]] on their album ''[[Heroine (From First to Last album)|Heroine]]'' (2006).

In 2003 he produced [[The Blood Brothers (band)|The Blood Brothers]]' ''[[...Burn, Piano Island, Burn]]'', which was a departure for both the band and Robinson. In contrast to The Blood Brothers' previously raw, often under-produced songs (which lasted as short as 90 seconds at times), ''...Burn, Piano Island, Burn'' featured much longer and more complex compositions.

Robinson was the owner of the IAM: Wolfpack label. In 2007 it was announced that he was starting a new label IAM: Wolfpack, which released the debut CD from [[Black Light Burns]] titled ''[[Cruel Melody]]''. He is a co-owner of semi-private NY nightclub [[The Plumm]], along with [[David Wells]], [[Jesse Bradford]], Noel Ashman and others.

From 2008, Robinson decided to produce new talents he discovered via [[Myspace]]. He recorded and mixed a young French trio called My Own Private Alaska, which mixes classical piano and scream based vocals. Their ''Amen'' album was released on March 1, 2010, through his label I Am Recordings.

He worked with the [[Slovenia]]n band [[Siddharta (band)|Siddharta]] on their new project Saga. He also produced [[Repeater (band)|Repeater]]'s second album, ''[[We Walk from Safety]]''.

Robinson has been producing [[indie rock]] bands such British bands [[Klaxons (English band)|Klaxons]] and [[Dananananaykroyd]]. In late 2008, the Luxembourgish dance rock band [[INBORN!]] were approached by Robinson. Having heard the band on the net, he offered to record their first official long player. The band entered Robinson's studio on October 1, 2010.

In 2010, Robinson returned to produce Korn's [[Korn III: Remember Who You Are|ninth album]], 14 years after last working with band. Korn wanted to recapture the raw energy of the first two albums which Robinson produced.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/news/Korn-Sign-to-Roadrunner-Ready-Korn-III--Remember-Who-You-Are-21145.aspx|title=Roadrunner Records Latest News|website=Roadrunner Records Official Website|access-date=October 3, 2018}}</ref>
