BEAT PHONIQUE ft DirdyGerdi B2B Mia Kober and Kevvy Small

Friends, creative collaborators, and co-pilots behind the decks — DirdyGerdi and Mia Kober are the beating heart of Silk Collective, a platform championing underground music and connecting communities across New Zealand and beyond.

DirdyGerdi is a driving force in New Zealand’s underground scene, known for her dynamic sets and infectious energy behind the decks. Her performances blend groove, sass, and bold rhythms, creating spaces where dancers feel confident, playful, and free. A regular across New Zealand’s festival circuit and a familiar face on European dancefloors, she champions co-creation, underground culture, and cross-cultural connection.

Mia Kober, meanwhile, is the maestro of silky sounds and soulful basslines, weaving deep, genre-fluid journeys that stretch beyond the music itself. Her intuitive feel for the dancefloor has shaped memorable sets at festivals like Shipwrecked, Splore and Rhythm & Alps, cementing her reputation as a vital voice in the scene.

Together, their synergy is magnetic — a true merging of two distinct yet complementary styles. Their B2B sets spark dancefloors with groove, emotion, and unexpected turns, blurring the lines between individuality and shared vision. From sun-soaked festivals to late-night dancefloors in Berlin, whether behind the decks or curating spaces through Silk Collective, DirdyGerdi and Mia Kober craft experiences that are soulful, intentional and deeply rooted in underground culture.

Beat Phonique continues the decades long celebration and passion found in House Music by Kevvy Small, by bringing quality events and underground parties that leave people wanting more.

Renowned for delivering stonkin banger sets to the dance floor and instrumental in creating a house music following in Whangarei, Kevvy has been a constant presence and foundational part of the ever growing scene here in the North.
