The Handover are a critically acclaimed trio that plays hypnotic, trance-inducing music, inspired by the ritual rhythms of the Egyptian countryside. The trio masterfully combines the delicacy of classical Arabic music with the raw expressiveness of Egypt's rural and shaabi music, peppered with a good dose of psychedelic improvisation, kraut riffs and experimental sounds. Their eponymous record put out by the American cult label Sublime Frequencies has been dubbed one of the beste releases on the label.

Jerzy Mączyński aka Pelican System
Polish multi-instrumentalist composer/producer. In the early years starting from the free jazz and after a few years of creative development, he smoothly shifted to an electronic music, combining varied approaches to music in his compositions.
In 2021 he released an LP with an electronic music – Jerry&ThePelicanSystem SARIANI in the Dutch label Yeyeh curated by Pieter Jansen. The album SARIANI, which title refers to a fictional character fighting for women’s rights in India, consists of six compositions transposing Mączyński’s Indian experiences with the use of electronic tools. Since its release, Jerzy presents his music mainly as a solo performer, using saxophone- sopranino or tenor- as the tools to produce the sounds of an entire orchestra, which he named „PelicanSystem orchestra”.
Numerous audiovisual and theater projects develop his music by introducing new instruments and recordings mostly done from expanding library of sounds recorded in his artistic space SAUNA – that is, in an abandoned Soviet pool.
In his career, Mączyński has presented his music on many national and international stages, including: London Jazz Festival, South Explorer Rotterdam, OFF Festival, Soundrive Festival, Jazz Jantar, NCPA Mumbai Experimental Stage and many others.
