Loud n Errl Moodmat
A boombox split down the middle, one half built from green buds and one half poured from dripping concentrate, die cut on twelve inches of recycled rubber. Run of 150.
The Print
A Boombox Built Out of Both Halves
Take the left speaker first. It is not drawn as a speaker at all, it is assembled out of cannabis: dense green buds packed tight where the cone should be, serrated leaves fanning out around the housing, all of it in a deep saturated green with darker line work picking out the individual calyxes. Two bug eyes sit in the middle of it, googly and off center, and a lit joint hangs out of the lower corner with a thin curl of smoke coming off the tip. That whole side reads as alive, in the sense that it looks like it might turn its head.
The right speaker is the opposite material entirely. It is poured rather than grown, a thick golden concentrate that sags off the housing in heavy rounded drips with highlights catching along the top of each one. A dab tool is planted in it at an angle, half sunk. And in the runs themselves there are small faces, mouths open, screaming as they slide down, which is the detail that turns the joke slightly mean and is by far the best thing on the mat. Green and alive on one side, gold and melting on the other, and neither one blending into the other.
The middle is a straight black stereo deck and it is where the small print lives. Cassettes are loaded in the wells, one of them hand lettered with a band name on the label and another marked as a mixtape, both drawn the way you used to write on a cassette with a marker when the sticker had gone crooked. Under them, a tuner dial with a needle on it, and the numbers on the scale only run from 418 to 423, which is a whole joke told in six numerals. There is no reactive ink in any of it, and the die cut follows the outline of the box, the leaves and the drips, so what lands on your table is a twelve inch boombox rather than a picture of one.
Designed By
Loud n Errl
Moodmats credits this design to Loud n Errl, which is also the name of the design, and no individual is named alongside it anywhere. So that is where the credit stops here too. What the print shows is somebody who thinks in collage rather than in single subjects: an everyday object rebuilt out of two unrelated materials, then filled with small readable jokes for anyone who leans in. The restraint is that the composition still reads as a boombox from across the room.

It is EMPTY on purpose and it is not a token, so the builder passes it through untouched. The TDH Product Video plugin swaps it for the video section at display time when the product has a Vimeo URL on its edit screen, and strips it entirely when it does not. So an empty slot never reaches a customer, and nobody ever hand-edits an embed into a description.

Made in New Jersey Since 2009
Rubber That Already Had a First Life
Moodmats started with scraps from old wetsuits and discarded scuba and surf neoprene, material that was headed straight for a landfill. That became Lava Rubber, and Lava Rubber is what every Moodmat is cut from. The feedstock now comes from wetsuits, gaskets, weatherstripping, seat molds, and other clean scrap that gets collected or donated. More than two tons of it moves through the New Jersey shop every month, gets pressed into sheet stock, then die-cut and screen printed. Keeping that material out of the ground has been the point from day one.
Closed-Cell Neoprene
Closed-cell rubber does not drink up what you spill on it. Water, reclaim, and terp splash sit on the surface instead of soaking in, so a wipe with soapy water puts it back to new.
It Stays Put
The rubber grips whatever it is sitting on and grips whatever you set on top. A rig that would skate across a glass table or a finished desk stops moving the second it lands on a Moodmat.
Tough and Self-Extinguishing
Heat resistant, self-extinguishing, and built out of material that already survived a first life. This is not a printed coaster that curls after a month on the table.
Where People Actually Put These
It Does Not Have to Hold a Rig
A Moodmat protects a surface and grips what sits on it. Whether that thing is a banger, a camera, or nothing at all is up to you. They are called Moodmats for a reason. Pick the one that matches how you feel and put it wherever it belongs.
Rig and Glass Pad
The job it was built for. Keeps glass off hard surfaces and keeps hard surfaces off your glass.
Display Surface
Figures, models, controllers, dice, cameras, watches. Anything worth setting on something intentional.
Wall Art
Plenty of these never touch a table. Hang it, frame it, or pin it behind the setup and let the print do the work.
Desk and Everyday
Trivet for hot pans, landing spot for keys, pad under a pet bowl, cushion on a camp table.
Why It Matters
Runs End. Prints Do Not Come Back.
Moodmats print in runs, and runs end. Once a design is out, it is out. Artist collabs and drop exclusives regularly land in quantities of ten to twenty five pieces, which is why the people who collect these track drops, trade them, and frame the ones they will never put a rig on. If this specific print matters to you, the time to grab it is while it is still on the shelf.
A Run of One Hundred Fifty
One hundred fifty is the whole production for this design. No hand inked number appears on the piece, so the run size is what we quote and we are not going to invent a position inside it. Worth knowing: the maker’s own stock of this design was down to a handful when we picked ours up, and Moodmats does not go back and reprint a design once its run is finished. We have one.
No Reprints
Moodmats does not go back and run a sold-out design again. When this one is gone from our shelf and theirs, the only way to get it is from somebody who already has one.
Worth Hanging
A print this limited does not have to earn its keep under a rig. Plenty of these end up on a wall, in a frame, or stacked with the rest of a collection.

Wipe it down with warm water and a little dish soap, then let it air dry flat. That is the whole routine. Do not run it through a washing machine or a dryer, do not scrub the print with an abrasive pad, and do not rest a lit torch or a glowing-hot banger directly on the surface. Use a stand or a puck for anything still at temperature.
Straight Talk
Know Before You Buy
Upcycled Means Variation
The rubber is reclaimed scrap, so base color, speckle, and surface texture shift slightly from sheet to sheet. Two mats of the same design will not be photocopies of each other. That is how you know it is the real material and not virgin stock.
Heat Resistant, Not Heatproof
The rubber is self-extinguishing and handles warm gear without complaint. It is not a torch pad. Park anything still glowing on a proper stand or a quartz puck, not on the print.
No UV on This One
Standard ink, full color, no reactive application anywhere in the print. A blacklight does nothing to it. A fair number of Moodmats do light up under one, this design is not among them, and it is better to hear that here than after you have plugged a lamp in over it.
Die-Cut Means Irregular Edges
The outline follows the leaves on one side and the wax drips on the other, so you get points, notches and a ragged bottom edge instead of a clean rectangle. The listed twelve inches is the widest point rather than a uniform footprint, and the leaf tips and drip ends are the thinnest sections of rubber on the piece. Measure your space if it is tight.
These Are the Maker’s Photos For Now
We have one of these on the shelf and the image on this page is not a picture of it. It is the manufacturer product shot, so read it as an accurate look at the print rather than at the exact sheet. This is also the row where a detail crop matters most, because the small jokes in the deck do not survive one wide shot. Our own photos are on the list.
