I'd recommend getting familiar with the Soviet film scene as well: songs from films often became known on their own right. , for example. Search with that name from Youtube and you'll find plenty of versions from it, some old and some modern.

They used to, but it hasn't worked for a while now.

. Soviet era music rules.

I love Kino and Igor Tal'kov. I'll post some videos later.

Actually, the original post covered a lot of what I listen to from the Soviet era, except possibly Alisa and Grazhdanskaya Oborona

Otherwise DDT and Akvarium are among my absolute favourite bands (probably my 2nd and 3rd most favourite bands ever, after the obviously-non-Russian King Crimson).

Most Russian music I listen to these days is post-Soviet-era though. Still, good stuff, I'm impressed you already have that list down. It's always awesome for people outside the former republics to be interested in that remarkable era in music

As far as film music goes, I might add these.

(Couldn't find a version from the film, but I guess it works this way too.)

Okay, okay, so I just love that film. Sue me.

Same here. I still have plenty of favorites from the Soviet era and pick up new ones every now and then, but vast majority are fairly new production. Depends on mood.

Sometimes I listen to the work of Dmitri Shostakovich.
5th Symphony:

8th Symphony:

or some of the piano concerto of Sergei Rachmaninoff
