On the original single release Mansurov received no credit, instead it was indicated as "Anonymous." Maya commented that he had come across the accordion version of "Bayatilar" on the Internet earlier in 2009 and claimed he had tried to contact the author but failed due to his busy schedule. On January 19, 2010, Edward Maya signed an agreement with Eldar Mansurov affirming their co-authorship of "Stereo Love."
