Mesto's single "Tetris (Truffle Butter Mashup)" was released as a free download on 9 December 2015. The single "Rio" was released in May before the bootleg of "Satisfied" by Showtek featuring Vassy in September. In April, he released a bootleg of " Lean On" by Major Lazer and DJ Snake featuring MØ in April. It was followed by his third single "Tokyo" in February. He started 2015 by releasing a single titled "New York". He then collaborated with Mike Williams to release a bootleg of "Raise Your Hands" by Ummet Ozcan. Shortly afterwards, he released a remix with Benfield of " Rude", a single by Magic!. Mesto began his career in 2014, when he was only 15 years old and his first official release was the single "GO!", a collaboration with Alex Ranzino which was released as a free download on 10 November 2014. He studied at Herman Brood Academy, a production school in Utrecht where Martin Garrix and Julian Jordan also went to.
He started making deep house music at that same age, but moved to slightly harder house, as well as future house. At the age of 14, he became inspired when he 'touched' a DJ set for the first time, prompting him to download specialist software, FL Studio, and enabling him to start composing.
He also developed an interest in deep house and future house when he heard " Gecko" by Oliver Heldens and taught himself how to do it by learning it from YouTube.
By the age of 11, he began playing the drums and shortly thereafter became interested in making music.
When he was 6, he started playing the violin. Stomp was born on 30 September 1999 in Amstelveen, Netherlands.
