Ideas+drafts+loops is a mixtape by Flying Lotus, released on December 10, 2013 by Brainfeeder. It was released for free via Mediafire and the Brainfeeder website. The mixtape contains guest features by Andreya Triana, Baths, Earl Sweatshirt, Mapei, Niki Randa, Shabazz Palaces, Thundercat, The Underachievers and Viktor Vaughn; and a remix of "Black Skinhead".
The mixtape was characterized as psychedelic and hip hop, with August Brown of Los Angeles Times describing some songs as "dinner jazz", "synth-velvety" and "hard core".
The mixtape mainly consists of unfinished "scraps" from his then-upcoming 2014 album You're Dead!. However, it also contains previously released material. The song "About That Time" was written for and featured in Cartoon Network series Adventure Time, as the closing theme for the episode "A Glitch Is a Glitch", titled as "About That Time//A Glitch Is a Glitch". The songs "Aqua Teen 24" and "Chasing Apples" are used the intro and outro theme respectively for Aqua TV Show Show, an alternative title for the tenth season of the Adult Swim series Aqua Teen Hunger Force. "Colemans Groove" is a version of a groove used by Hodgy in his song "Lately", and "Between Villains" was previously released as a part of Adult Swim Singles Program 2013.
