During his time as municipal architect he designed the Jinrikisha Station at Kreta Ayer and the entrance lodge, gate and chapel of the Bidadari Cemetery. He remained in the post for about five years, when he resigned and started his own practice in 1907. In the same year, he had secured the largest job of the period as designer of The Arcade at Collyer Quay for Alkaff & Co. Other major buildings by him at that period were the Wesley Methodist Episcopal Church, St. Joseph's Cathedral, the Masonic Hall in Coleman Street and the Banque de l’Indochine building in Raffles Place.
In 1 December 1912 he merged his practice with the Singaporean firm of Swan & Maclaren. In 12 January 1914 he was admitted FRIBA, then at 26 May of the same year, he took leave and left for home for the first time since his arrival in the colony. World War I broke out not long after he went home. He served in the war as a Royal Engineers officer until he was demobilised in August 1919.
After demobilisation, he return to Malaya and proceeded to Penang where he opened a branch office for Swan & Maclaren. On the death of Philip Charles Russell, the firm's partner, the name of the Penang branch was changed to Swan, Maclaren & Craik. His notable works while in the partnership were Eu Villa in Singapore, Chatsworth and George Town Dispensary in Penang, and the HSBC building in Sungai Petani.
His partnership with Swan & Maclaren was dissolved in 1928 and later managed his own practice with his partner Osborne Howard Leicester as the firm Craik & Leicester. Works during this period were all in Penang, including The Cenotaph, Lim Lean Teng Mansions and The Windsor. In 13 April 1932, Sidney Iverson Knowles, an employee of the firm, committed suicide, leaving behind three letters, one of them addressed to Craik. |

Héctor Stamponi | Infobox musical artist
| Héctor Luciano Stamponi (24 December 1916 – 3 December 1997) was an Argentine tango composer, pianist, and arranger. He composed, among others, the tangos El último café (1963, with lyrics by Cátulo Castillo) and Qué me van a hablar de amor (with lyrics by Homero Expósito and recorded by Julio Sosa in 1963). |
Héctor Stamponi | Life | Life
Nicknamed Chupita, he studied piano with Esther Coltelli. He began his musical career in the orchestra of Juan Elhert (a German tango musician based in Zárate), a group that also included Enrique Mario Francini, Armando Pontier, Cristóbal Herreros, and the singer René Di Pietro. They moved to Buenos Aires, performing at the famous matinée of Juan Manuel in 1936. Shortly afterward, the artistic careers of these musicians diverged. Stamponi, Francini, and Pontier formed a trio that accompanied artists on Radio Argentina.
Later, in the 1937–1938 season, Stamponi joined the orchestra led by Federico Scorticati, who performed on Radio Sténtor.
Stamponi left Scorticati’s orchestra, briefly joining Miguel Caló’s orchestra without making any recordings. He then devoted himself to orchestration.
In 1943, he was the pianist for Antonio Rodio’s orchestra. Shortly afterward, he traveled to Central America as the accompanist for singer Amanda Ledesma. He stayed in Mexico, where he composed tangos for the films Somos dos(1944) and Cruz. In 1959, he formed the group Los Violines de Oro del Tango with Enrique Mario Francini.
In Mexico (1944), he composed music for films and wrote two tangos with Ernesto Cortázar: Somos dos and Cruz. Upon returning to Buenos Aires, he began studying with maestro Alberto Ginastera (harmony) and Julián Bautista (composition) in 1946, and formed an excellent orquesta típica to fulfill a recording contract with Victor Records.
Guillermo Arbós was his first singer. He was later followed by Alberto Drames and Alfredo Arrocha. The recording cycle ended in 1949. After leaving this activity, he continued as a piano soloist, accompanist, and arranger. All the most important performers sought his collaboration.
In 1953, as had been done years earlier by Roberto Firpo and Cayetano Puglisi, Enrique Delfino and Agesilao Ferrazzano, and Carlos Vicente Geroni Flores also with Ferrazzano, he performed alongside Enrique Mario Francini, forming a piano and violin duet. In some instances, the excellent cellist José Bragato would join them.
In 1959, he formed the group Los Violines de Oro del Tango, which he co-directed with Francini. The ensemble also included Enrique Díaz on double bass and the violinists José Niesov, Adolfo Gendelman, Vicente Tagliacozzo, Simón Bajour, Luis Gutiérrez del Barrio, Hugo Baralis, and Juan Ghirlanda.
At the same time, he formed a large ensemble to support a long-playing record by Edmundo Rivero, featuring as main artists the violinist Raúl Marcelli and the bandoneon of Mario Demarco, Kicho Díaz on double bass, Mario Lalli on viola, and José Bragato on cello.
In 1960, he gathered another group of musicians to accompany the singer Raúl Lavié (from the PK record company), recording on the record grooves a instrumental tango by Mario Demarco titled Solfeando. In 1962, he teamed up with Mario Arroyo, Horacio Ferrer(from the PK record company), Jorge Seijo, and Luis Adolfo Sierra (from the PK record company) to record a tango album performed by his piano.
In September 1962, it was announced in Montevideo how the ensemble would be composed: Mario Arroyo, Horacio Ferrer, Jorge Seijo, and Dr. Luis Adolfo Sierra. They recorded an album with four songs by Adolfo Ábalos: En pleno Nueva York, Al Buenos Aires de las 3 de la mañana, Para cantor y orquesta, and Para recordar—splendid tangos performed with piano solos by Héctor Stamponi.
He composed, among other works, the tangos Cuando cuentes la historia de tu vida (music and lyrics), El trompo azul, El último café (Odol Award 1963), El vino enamorado, Inquietud, Qué me van a hablar de amor, Quedémonos aquí, Soy un circo, and Yo quería ser feliz (music and lyrics). He also composed the waltzes Flor de lino, Pedacito de cielo, and Un momento (music and lyrics).
He was the director of the resident orchestra at Caño 14 and was part of the ensemble from the establishment of the venue (1963) until its closure. For several seasons, he also formed a highly successful duo with Enrique Mario Francini at the same location. He directed the groups that accompanied Roberto Goyeneche, Alberto Marino, Nelly Vázquez, Hugo Marcel, Alba Solís, Jorge Sobral, María Graña, Rubén Juárez, and Raúl Lavié, among others. During his time at Caño 14, Hugo del Carril, at his express request, had him as the director of the group that accompanied him. Stamponi actively participated in the institutional life of SADAIC (Society of Authors and Music Composers), holding various positions from 1970 to 1977, when he served as vice president. |

99.9 Psychic Radio | Infobox album
| 99.9 Psychic Radio (read as "Ninety-Nine Point Nine Psychic Radio") is an EP by Psychic Fever from Exile Tribe. It was released exclusively in digital format on January 19, 2024. |
99.9 Psychic Radio | Overview | Overview
This work includes four tracks produced by JP THE WAVY, including "Temperature", which was previously released digitally in October 2023. The title 99.9 Psychic Radio draws inspiration from the idea that the hip-hop genre originally expanded its reach globally through mixtapes and radio stations. The EP is set up with the concept of a fictional radio program called Psychic Radio, airing on the imaginary station 99.9MHz.
When listened to as a whole, the four tracks are structured in a way that evokes the feeling of tuning into a program broadcast on the fictional radio station (99.9MHz).
The jacket artwork was created by the creative team DOPE. The design features the members wearing Y2K fashion, creating a visual reminiscent of the covers of American hip-hop magazines from the 2000s.
The lead track, "Just Like Dat feat. JP THE WAVY", is a driving tune that expresses the frustration of a man who can't seem to get the attention of the girl he really likes. The song blends modern beats with melodic elements and drum programming that evoke the vibes of 2000s hip-hop. JP THE WAVY not only produced the track but is also featured as a guest artist.
Other tracks include "Psyfe Cypher", a freestyle rap track in the style of a radio program featuring TSURUGI, RYOGA NAKANISHI, JIMMY, and RYUSHIN HANDA, and "Rocket (Take You Higher)", a long-distance love song between Thailand and Japan that invites the listener to relax and escape the noise of the city, with standout rap and vocals from KOKORO KOHATSU, WEESA, and REN WATANABE.
In September of the same year, "Just Like Dat (feat. JP THE WAVY)" surpassed 240 million total views on the video-sharing app TikTok. On September 28, an English version titled "Just Like Dat feat. JP THE WAVY - English Ver." was released digitally. The English lyrics were translated by Shurland Ayers. |

The music video for the lead track "Just Like Dat feat. JP THE WAVY" was directed by Spikey John. JP THE WAVY also participated in the supervision of the video's concept, choreography, and styling, and appears in the video. The choreography was done by member RYUSHIN HANDA, along with KAITA and KAZtheFIRE, who were teammates of HANDA's in the dance team RIEHATATOKYO. The video was released on YouTube on the same day as the EP. |
