The effects go way beyond the music created. I highly recommend Steve."

Steve offers a wide range of creative, listening and watching services for all ages for everyone, with a specialism in helping people with conditions such as Autism, social and emotional difficulties, and ADHD.
WeCreate+ is the ambitious in-development expansion of WeCreate, welcoming musicians at all stages in their career to collaborate with Steve, enabling online collaboration sessions, encouraging songs with positive messages.
Other opportunities can be the focus or combined with the music, such as making videos, learning and creating animations, using virtual reality for making art, animation and 360 VR videos, and learning other creative software.
A new focus of the service is to create pieces of music and videos that have positive messages or bring healing to the service user and/or others.
When creating music, you can work from a music project with all Steve's best music samples and software instruments inside to use as starting inspiration, e.g. take a guitar part from a song you like to add to yours, or remix Steve's work.
WeCreate+ will offer anyone to submit poems or lyrics for free to be considered for use by the service users and most of these will be posted on social media.
Heal & Create aims to link up with charities in the near future, and sell the music created with a goal of having the music placed in TV and film.

Testimonials
“I’m Mordechai Kestecher, a screenwriter, lyricist and poet. I met Steve as a music teacher when I attended the Binoh unit in Hendon during which time I hadn't had proper schooling since age 13. With the help of Steve's laptop and equipment, I recorded my first hit single "I might" which he worked on perfecting for years after I'd left.
Steve and I collaborated on and off since my time in Binoh, he went on to help me master my writing skills, helped produce and edit my only successful film, and made an improved version of I Might (I Might Too), together with a music video.
Not only has Steve paid an unmeasurable contribution to my skills. I don't recall ever successfully producing anything without his direct help“
Mordechai Kestecher (Former student)
"Steve is calm and patient with Theo who always looks forward to his sessions with Steve. We usually have to tear Theo away when they finish as he's having so much fun and always wants to do "one more thing".
"Steve has been working with my 8 year old son for over a year now. Initially we asked Steve to help my son create mapping movies, and although Steve was unfamiliar with this type of animation, he researched the subject and taught himself how to make them so he could teach Theo. With Steve's assistance, Theo has produced some fabulously creative and complex animations. He's learned how to use various animation and editing software programmes such as Pixelmator and Final Cut Pro. As Theo's interests change, Steve adapts what he does with him. They've created Theo's version of flight tracker as well as an online board game involving City Skylines. Most recently, Steve has taught Theo how to use data visualisation software, Flourish Studio, so that he can create his own moving bar charts."
Jenny S. (Mother of current student Theo)
"I had the pleasure of attending a sound healing with StevePaul. The experience was extremely relaxing and profound. He is extremely professional and in touch with his deep sensitivity so he can encounter the other needs. I felt the energy flowing smoothly inside my body when he was playing all different instruments around me. I felt safe and free of experience my expansion. Definitely he created a safe space for me to be vulnerable and be received in many levels. Highly recommend it."
