Background

Romanian musician and record producer Edward Maya first entered the music scene in 2006 while being a student at the National University of Music Bucharest, contributing songwriting to the Romanian Eurovision Song Contest 2006 entry "Tornerò" performed by Mihai Trăistariu.[2] Subsequently, he worked on songs released by other Romanian acts such as Costi Ioniță and Blaxy Girls, and lent his production to group Akcent's 2009 studio album Fără lacrimi (Without Tears), which spawned the commercially successful singles "Stay with Me" and "That's My Name".[3][4][5] Around the release of "Stereo Love", Maya was in a relationship with Moldovan-Romanian DJ Vika Jigulina.[6][7] She had graduated from a music college before working in Romanian clubs and at native radio station Vibe FM.[8]

Release

"Stereo Love" was sent for radio airplay in Romania on 23 February 2009, as Maya's and Jigulina's debut single.[3][4] It was eventually included as the opening track on Maya's debut studio album The Stereo Love Show (2014).[9] On 6 July 2009, Cat Music made the song available for digital download in several countries, including Romania, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom.[10] In France, "Stereo Love" was released in the same format on 19 October 2009 by Play On Records,[11] who also issued a CD single in the country in November.[12][13] Several remixes of "Stereo Love"—some of which were featured on its physical releases—have been produced, including ones by Eiffel 65 member Gabry Ponte,[14] Dave Ramone, Digital Dog, Michael Mind Project,[15] Timmy Trumpet,[16] Wildstylez and Sean Finn.[17][18] A Spanish language version of the song was also released.[19]

In 2009, Spinnin' Records and Do It Yourself Music Group released CDs in the Netherlands and Italy, respectively.[20][21] The latter label issued another CD in Italy a year later,[14] while B1 Recordings and Universal Music Group jointly distributed a CD in Germany on 7 May 2010.[22][23] A CD was also distributed in the United Kingdom through All Around the World Records in 2010.[24] The song's release in the United States and Canada was conducted by Ultra Records.[1][25] On 15 April 2024, a blue-colored 12-inch vinyl was made available in Germany by Dance on the Beat Records.[26]

"Stereo Love" on YouTube

Canadian singer Mia Martina recorded a cover version of "Stereo Love" and released it on her YouTube channel on 15 June 2010.[27] It was later issued for digital download in Canada on 7 September 2010 by Ultra Records—who had previously searched for a North American artist for an official remix of "Stereo Love"[28]—as Martina's debut single.[29] She is credited as a co-lead artist on the song alongside Maya,[29] and went on to include it on her debut studio album Devotion (2011).[30]

Directed by Marc André Debruyne in Toronto, Canada, a music video for the remix was uploaded on YouTube on 9 September 2010, depicting Martina riding a sailboat at sunset and riding around the town at night in a car.[31] Ultra Records did not approve of a budget for a music video, but Martina and her management insisted on filming one, using "around 500 dollars" of their own money for it.[32] Martina's version of "Stereo Love" experienced commercial success in Canada and surpassed the original, peaking at number ten on the Canadian Hot 100 in November 2010.[33] It received a double platinum certification from Music Canada,[34] and was nominated for Dance Recording of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2011, where Martina also gave a live performance of the song.[30][35]

Maya was dissatisfied with the release of the remix, claiming in a social media message that he did not know Martinez and had not approved of her version. He further complained about Ultra Records trying to book her instead of him at an upcoming North American tour. In response to Maya, the label stated that they had legally aquired the rights from Cat Music to remix "Stereo Love".[1] In 2011, Maya and Jigulina parted ways with Cat Music, accusing the label of breach of contract for withholding their royalties and not promoting their version of "Stereo Love", as well as for granting cover licenses of the song—including to Martina—without their consent. Cat Music sued Maya and Jigulina for two million euro for their statements.[36]

Composition and interpolation dispute

Music critics described "Stereo Love" as a soulful Eurodance,[37][38] techno and trance song.[39][40] It can also be assigned to the Romanian popcorn music genre, which was popular around the time of the song's release.[41] The refrain of "Stereo Love" prominently features an accordion hook, which interpolates the 1989 song "Bayatılar" performed by Azerbaijani singer Brilliant Dadashova.[37][42] While a BBC editor noted the accordion's potential to be a "polarizing" instrument,[43] an Ultra Records representative stated how "[w]orking a record with an accordion hook into all these different formats and sell copies [...] doesn't happen very often".[37]


  • inspired by Lambada/"Llorando se Fue", similar melody
  • As for Maya's "Stereo Love," it doesn't quote the trademark lambada accordion hook; writers changed the note sequence just enough so that it would evoke the melody rather than replicate it.[37]
  • memorable accordion refrain[40]
  • Last week, Dominique Lord, an associate professor at Texas A&M University, noted in a post on Open.Salon.com that a musical refrain in “On the Floor” bears an uncanny resemblance to the tune “Stereo Love” by Romanian performer and composer Edward Maya
  • And as Lord, who blogs under the handle “Kanuk,” points out, Maya had to give credit to another composer for lifting the tune from him.
  • In a post titled “J.Lo’s ‘On the Floor’: Plagiarizing a plagiarized song?” Lord writes that after listening to Lopez’s single, “I was surprised to find, right at the 25-sec mark, synthesizer notes that sounded bizarrely familiar.”
  • After listening to the song segment again, he continues, “I definitely knew that tune”: Maya’s 2009 international club hit “Stereo Love.” Lord adds that he wasn’t the only one who’d reached that conclusion. He cites a music reviewer, whom he doesn’t identify, who wrote, “It sounds like producer RedOne has been listening to Edward Maya’s hit single ‘Stereo Love.'”[44]
  • Die EU-Osterweiterung macht auch vor der Musik nicht halt. Ihr verdanken wir das Genre europäischer Schifferklavier-Techno
  • If "Stereo Love" were a person, it would be the the spray tanned and drawn-on eyebrowed Persian and Italian chicks that for some reason used to dig on me in the mid 2000s. That was my life. I didn't ask for it. It's a song that, to me, embodies the cheesy North American "Euro"-ness. It's gaudy, it's basic and seems to be ticking off so many boxes of what a "Euro" dance song should be, that it borders on parody. Nah mean? Like that accordion sounds like they used a sample from the background music at a Greek restaurant. That being said, people love the hell out of it. Not just Jersey Shore types either. It went number 1 and platinum all over the place, so it must have had something that people liked. People that are not pretentious, internationally-recognized blogging superstars like me.[38]
  • The popularity of Stereo Love is so immense, that it is still found on club playlists two years after its release, the track’s appeal is so universal, it just could be your mother’s ringtone[45]
  • It's mournful, carrying a boomy, cavernous sense of weight around the heartal area, pierced through by Vika's icy sobs. She's sad and wants her loved one to know about it, by sighing pointedly and pointing at her own tears. TEARS OF SADNESS, YOU UNCARING DOLT!
  • But that frosty cool can't stand up to a thawing blast of the dreaded squeezebox. No sooner has she struck the perfect anguished pose, but some busker chips in with a jaunty air, smashing the cymbals on his knees together and nodding eagerly towards the upturned hat full of coins on the pavement.[43]


  • both are singing
A copyright dispute between Maya (left) and Eldar Mansurov (right) concerning the use of his 1989 composition "Bayatılar" was settled at a Baku press conference in January 2010 (pictured).

"Stereo Love" was written by Maya and Jigulina, while Azerbaijani musician Eldar Mansurov is credited as a composer for an interpolation of the 1989 song "Bayatılar" performed by Azerbaijani singer Brilliant Dadashova.[46][42] The production was handled by the former two alongside Ilie Alexandru.[46] Mansurov was initially not credited on "Stereo Love" and issued a complaint at the Romanian Copyright Office upon finding the song on the internet. Maya claimed that he was "captivated" by the melody in the chorus of "Bayatılar" and decided to use it in his song in early 2009. He alleged to have credited Mansurov as "anonymous" upon having unsuccessfully tried to contact him. On 19 January 2010, Maya and Mansurov signed a contract at a press conference in Baku, Azerbaijan, settling the copyright dispute. At the event, Mansurov stated that he was "very glad that for the first time a figure of Azerbaijani culture managed to restore his right".[42]

Critical reception and accolades

In 2010, "Stereo Love" was nominated for a Balkan Music Award for Best Song in the Balkans from Romania for 2009,[47] as well as for a Romanian Music Award in the Best Song category.[48] At the 2011 Billboard Music Awards, "Stereo Love" won for Top Dance Song, which was the first win by a Romanian act in history.[49][50]

Commercial performance

"Stereo Love" was part of a broader movement in which Romanian dance music and songs released by artists such Inna (pictured) became part of the international mainstream.[51]

"Stereo Love" has become one of the most successful songs released by Romanian artists.[52][50] It developed into a sleeper hit in several territories, progressively impacting charts from 2009 to 2011.[53][54][55] Meanwhile, Maya and Jigulina released two other singles—"This Is My Life" in November 2009,[56] and "Desert Rain" in November 2010[57]—which also began gaining their own momentum.[58][59]

"Stereo Love" had a similar commercial trajectory to several other Romanian songs released around the late 2000s, such as Inna's "Hot" (2008), and was part of the emergence of Romania as a center for Europe's dance music scene. Songs would first become successful in clubs in Romanian resorts, and then cross over to Greece, Turkey, Egypt and Southern Europe before charting in the United Kingdom and German-speaking Europe nine to 12 months after their original release.[51] In a December 2022 interview, Maya described how he initially felt frustrated with the success of "Stereo Love", as he was fearful of remaining a one-hit wonder. This resulted in him "mak[ing] the same style of music, us[ing] the same accordion, the same voices, in the hopes of surpassing the previous success".[50]

2009

"Stereo Love" first attained commercial success in native Romania. It entered the top ten of Nielsen Music Control and Uniunea Producătorilor de Fonograme din România (UPFR)'s radio and television airplay chart at number eight for the first time in June 2009.[60] The song went on to peak at number five in August,[61] and also reached number two on the Romanian Top 100―which only measures radio airplay―by the same month.[62] "Stereo Love" further peaked at number two in Greece in August 2009.[63]

From October to November 2009, the track reached number two on the TopHit airplay chart of Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS),[53] as well as numbers one and two on the Dutch Top 40 and Dutch Single Top 100 rankings, respectively.[64][65] It went on to top the French singles chart in December 2009,[66] after having already been a number-one on the digital downloads chart for multiple weeks one month earlier.[67][68] It ended up as the 15th most-successful song in the country in both 2009 and 2010.[69][70] As of February 2010, "Stereo Love" has sold over 92,000 units in France, consisting of over 55,000 digital downloads,[71] and over 36,000 physical copies.[72]

2010

In February 2010, "Stereo Love" reached its peak at numbers two, seven and two in Switzerland, Flanders and Wallonia, respectively.[73][74][75] It was a number-one hit on both the Czech and Slovak radio airplay charts in April 2010,[76][77] and also peaked at number 19 in Canada, where it was certified double platinum.[33][78] Around the same month, "Stereo Love" reached number one in all Nordic countries,[79][80][81] except for Denmark, where it peaked at number two;[82] among others, it was certified septuple platinum by the Swedish Recording Industry Association (GLF) and octuple platinum by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) Norway.[83][84]

By May 2010, the song had topped the Italian, Spanish and Irish singles charts,[85][86][87] as well as reached number two and four on the Scottish and UK singles rankings, respectively.[88][89] In Ireland, a cover version of "Stereo Love" by DJ Team was initially also present on the chart for two weeks, peaking at number eight.[87] In both Spain and Italy, "Stereo Love" spent half a year in the top ten,[85][86] with it eventually receiving double platinum certifications from Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana (FIMI) and Productores de Música de España (PROMUSICAE).[90][91] By June, the song had impacted the US Dance/Mix Show Airplay and European Hot 100 Singles charts compiled by Billboard, peaking at positions one and four.[92][93] On the latter, it remained for 47 weeks, which is the longest stay in the chart's history.[94] A month later, "Stereo Love" reached number eight on the Brasil Hot 100 Airplay chart, while also peaking at numbers two and four on the Austrian and German singles charts, respectively, in August.[95][54]

2011

The song peaked at number ten on Billboard's Mexico Airplay chart in January 2011,[96] after having reached number two on Mexico Ingles Airplay, its English language songs-only component chart, in September 2010.[97] "Stereo Love" entered the US Billboard Hot 100 at position 93 in October 2010 and reached its peak at number 16 in January 2011,[98] which is the highest for a Romanian song.[99] It has since received a platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA),[98] and has registered sales of 2,226,000 copies as of September 2012.[100] "Stereo Love" continued to rise on other US rankings throughout 2011, including on Hot Latin Songs, where it peaked at number 22 in April.[55]
