	Santiago Rodriguez Almenara was born on November 15, 1985 in Maracay, Aragua (Venezuela), reared in a spanish family who loved music, he started his musical training at age 7 when he took piano lessons. At age 12, took drums lessons and 3 years later (15 years), he entered the Aragua State Youth Orchestra, sitting in the choir as a baritone. At that time, Santiago Rodríguez (SROD), aimed to study cello, however, his eternal restlessness and incessant curiosity lead him to venture into the world of 6 strings, playing in secret, a very old guitar that belonged to his grandfather learning self-taught. Later, he decided to devote himself to this instrument and begins to take formal classes in various schools in the region with renowned guitarists. \
 
In 2003 he experiences being recorded at home with inexpensive equipment with HARLAST name, which later became SROD. In 2006, thanks to family support, built a studio in his house which is his current job, where several Venezuelan bands, rehearse, record and are produced by Santiago. It also provides calibration services and maintenance of guitars with his father.

Ipecac Recordings is the brainchild of Greg Werckman (former label manager for the legendary punk label, Alternative Tentacles, employee for Mercury Records for a record 15 minutes, currently operating Pick-A-Winner Management) and Mike Patton (former frontman for Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, currently of Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom).

Werckman and Patton had been scheming for years (in between video games) about starting their very own label, waiting for just the right moment to unleash their master plan. Ipecac Recordings is not about to make music biz history and execute a revolution (although one is surely needed) or bore you by waxing poetic about their original musical philosophies. But if we have to adhere to a "mission statement," how about the notion of being an honest, artist friendly label run on a shoe string with no outrageous promotional or production costs. This label is a home to Mike Patton's eclectic musical collaborations as well as a place where bands we admire have the freedom to release music they might not be able to, or want to, release on other labels.
