My name is Carla, I am 24 and live in the North East of England.

I used to be an active Swap-Bot user in 2008 and only recently rediscovered it and would love to get into the swing of things again!

(The reason for lack of 'Type' numbers is this was not yet a feature when I used to swap! ;))

My favourites include: The Vines, Placebo, The Epoxies, CSS, Skrillex, Plastic Operator, Helen Love, Polysics, To My Boy, Ke$ha, Freezepop, Robots In Disguise, Hole, Zombina and the Skeletones, YMCK.

My favourite genres are electro/nica, new-wave, 80s, punk and synthpop. But I listen to lots of stuff.

I am also an avid musical theatre fan - my favourites being Les Miserables, Matilda, Rent and Little Shop of Horrors.

A Clockwork Orange, If..., Ghost World, Me And You And Everyone We Know, The Craft, Amelie, Tank Girl, Little Miss Sunshine, Secretary.

I am also a Disney fangirl - I even have the crown from Tangled tattooed on my wrist.

I was a film student, so always love discovering interesting indie films! I am however 100% NOT a film snob. ;)
