Latvian rock has been an important part of Latvia's music scene since the 1980s, when it was a part of the discontent with Soviet rule. The city of Liepāja has an especially active rock scene. Līvi, and Remix are from Liepāja, as are rock composers Imants Kalniņš and Zigmars Liepiņš. In the 1980s, Pērkons played a pompous sort of hard rock that was popular with audiences. Underground studio-based groups NSRD and Dzeltenie Pastnieki introduced extensive use of electronic instrumentation, while and brought guitar-based post-punk tendencies (though about ten years after the fact). * v * t * e
