Following his return to the United States, Gerard remained dedicated to his craft through performances and production. At the time of publication, The Hit List brought together House Music and Techno DJs from Florida and the wider USA in a weekly podcast.

Laydee V's Jolly on Boh introduces Deep Tech House, before Henrik Villard's P.S. on Mhost Likely returns to the deeper house selection. Zetbee's Walking Over Me on Salted sits alongside Personality Disorder's Synco, released through Personality Disorder.
Toni Young's Impossible To Imagine on Piston and Rawdio's Take It Off on House Cookin' keep the house focus in place. This brings the close of 6047's first hour too a close.
host DJ Gerard starts the second hour with Niteplan's Night Lasts Forever, which leads into Elliot Moriarty's Cascading Memories on Suprematic, where Organic House enters the programme. Double Touch and M.O.S. bring the Zone+ Remix of Cat In The Booth on Melody Of the Soul, extending that organic house passage.
Dario D'Attis and Jinadu's Everything Changes, in the Da Le (Havana) and Different Age Remix on Stereo Productions, then gives way to Nandu and Emily Simbi's Interference Inside on Out Of Options and its Melodic House and Techno character. A nice change in the mix follows.
Christian Vila's House Is A Feeling restores the deep house emphasis before City Soul Project and Man Go Funk's Narda Remix of Pump It Up Loud on City Soul Recordings adds another club-focused turn. Impérieux follows with Cadenza on Sum Over Histories, retaining the programme's measured late-set momentum.
Gruuve's extended mix of Cloud on Glasgow Underground carries the set towards its final stretch. Karmon's Wowshit on Diynamic closes the selection with the same deep house direction that frames the opening records.
