(1989)Naktis is the sixth album by Latvian band Dzeltenie Pastnieki, released through magnitizdat in 1987, and was the last one of the band's six 1980s albums to see an official CD release. Before the October 21, 2010 issue, the album was widely shared on P2P networks in several versions of tape-to-computer transfers done by fans. The name of the album translates as "Nights" or "The Nights" from Latvian, referring to the hours the sessions most often took place.
As a favourite of both fans and critics alike, the album is perhaps the band's strongest full-length statement. So far, it is the only album besides Bolderājas dzelzceļš to feature live drumming by Ilgvars Rišķis, and marked a return to that album's guitar/bass-centered sound. Both synthesizers and tape manipulation were also still prominent in the band's sound.
