Next Big Things, For Now
Seeing more hip young people than usual on the subway this week? It's that time of year: the CMJ Music Marathon. According to CMJ's web site, more than 120,000 musicians, filmmakers, panelists and others are participating in the event, which runs through Sunday. New York Times pop music critic Jon Pareles helps us sort through this year's bonanza with his picks from the festival so far.

A favorite was Pretty Good Dance Moves, a nice surprise on a Wednesday afternoon at Rockwood Music Hall. http://www.sparked.biz/2009/10/22/pretty-good-dance-moves/
Bear in Heaven! That's my vote for great CMJ show. Check out their myspace and if you like 'em go see one their 4 shows. I'm really liking these gents lately. psych-electro-kraut-pop goodness
Grooms!! They put on such a consistently solid show. These guys are seriously talented musicians and they make awesomely loud, rocking songs that somehow still manage to be just so... pretty.
combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell - I can not stop playing it over and over!!!
