soft wood
november 19 2022 - ep
my first ep, made in a month with a logic pro trial period. this project showcase how much i've really improved over the next couple records. my indie pop phase will never be forgotten.
memory pool
february 24 2023 - single
made it in 30 minutes when i was feeling depressed, the sound effects were added to exemplify this feeling. now it's my most popular song to date. depression sells i suppose.
woodland
august 11 2023 - single
probably my most beautifully arranged track. i love it with all my heart. it's what 2020-me would have wanted to create back when he started creating, and am glad we got to here.
thee, toast en tomaten
march 27 2025 - ep
nostalgia hit me like a ton of bricks at the start of the year. remembered one day when a friend i haven't seen since 2021 gave me a song file, so i remixed it. we started talking again after the release.
bedroom sessions
december 3 2022 - misc
wanted to make a compagion piece to my first ep, so recorded voice notes of me performing most of the tracks from the ep. that's what you hear on streaming, unmixed.
the night everything happened
march 17 2023 - ep
much like memory pool, most of the tracks are shallow and somber much like how i was feeling at the time. whilst i like the sound design on this ep, am glad i'm just not depressed anymore.
pumpkin (halloween version)
october 25 2023 - single
my favorite track from my first ep in a new jacket. it was nice to redo the track with the skills i learned along the way. the lyricism though could've been a little bit better.
barebones
may 5 2025 - album
a sweet and tender collection of tracks i made in the span of a few years that truly reflect on how far i've gone, and it's a good reminder that life turns out for the best after all.
resolutions
december 3 2022 - single
a track based on the time-honored tradition of resolutions. it's one of my best produced electronic-only songs. amphi unforunately did not stand the test of time.
the garden
may 12 2023 - single
made for my school's talent show, this was the second song that i considered performing for it. i like the vibe it goes for, but if i had more time to finish it, i would've done that.
live at polarizefest
june 1 2024 - live
made for the now-defunct noise label Polarize. unironically the turning point in my entire music career. made with instruments i haven't played before and styles i haven't tried. it's awesome !
calmus (2021-)
my ambient electronic project i started using more seriously, whilst i was still pretty bad at making music, i improved over time.

slow dive
pollen dragons (2024-)
coming to fruition in the year of the dragon, this project is meant to be my most out there and incorporates a lot of fantasy
self-titled (real being)
may 5 2025 - album
6 songs of completely different styles, reflecting the story of a lonesome dragon not knowing in which world he belongs, as a monster with no shape. aspects of my life are reflected in it.
lucky (2020-2021)
the first alias i ever started, all of these releases aren't available anywhere anymore

louis baret - thee, toast en tomaten
for almost all my life, the countryside has been a solitude of where inspiration sparked to create. during middle school, the many small handcraft projects that my school provided would becomethe covid-19 pandemic was an opportunity to once again discover the arts. whilst stuck inside, music started becoming part of my life, and now all those years later, am closer to it becoming my actual job.
