Hit Machine

Last updated

Hit Machine was an Australian compilation album series produced and skewed by Festival Records, Mushroom Records (both labels folded today with Warner Bros. Records) BMG and Columbia Records (both labels folded today with Sony Music Australia), available in only Australia. It competed with 100% Hits, which started two years before, during its existence. It was released every three months and are mainly the biggest Top 40 hits of the season. It commenced in 1993 and ran 28 versions until 2000, where it was replaced by the So Fresh series. [1] [2] The replaced series uses the season-named format and includes songs from artists under Universal Music, which was previously included in 100% Hits series. Festival Records was folded to Warner Bros. Records, which managed the 100% Hits and NOW series with EMI. Sony Music Australia and Warner Bros. Records released digitally remastered versions of the entire Hit Machine series from 2015.
