Deorro began his career under the pseudonym Ton! C , which he dropped for legal reasons. After he was able to make a name for himself in the dance scene through a few productions, well-known DJs became aware of him for the first time and the first collaborations were created. In 2012 he took part in a major US-wide DJ tour, after which he also made some major appearances in Australia. On " Spinnin 'Records " he released the single Get Up for the first time, a track on a larger label. The successor Dechorro brought first commercial success.

A first vocal version was released on October 3, 2014 with the title Don't Hold Me Back, produced in collaboration with Canadian singer DyCy.
