So Fresh

So Fresh is a compilation album series that began in late 2000 with the release of So Fresh: The Hits of Spring 2000. It replaced the long-running Hit Machine series.

Named after the season the album is released in, it consists of current Top 40 hit songs recorded by artists signed to Sony Music Australia and Universal Music Australia. At the end of each year, along with the usual "Hits of Summer" edition, a second two-disc edition is released. This edition combines the "Hits of Summer" edition plus a collection of other Top 40 hits from throughout the year.

Every "So Fresh" album since 2000 (apart from the Pop Party and special #1s or Top 10s versions) has gone to No. 1 on the ARIA Chart "Compilation Albums" chart. Most So Fresh compilations sell well over 140,000 copies (Double Platinum in Australia). So Fresh: The Hits of Summer 2007 sold over 350,000 copies (5x Platinum in Australia).[1] They are the most successful compilation albums in Australian music history.

So Fresh TV

The Nine Network broadcast So Fresh TV from 2002 to 2006, which was filmed in the Sydney CBD. The hosts of the show were Jules Lund (2002-2003), David Campbell (2004-2006) and Elysia Platt (2002-2006), who would sometimes interview various artists. The show mainly played music videos of songs released recently. The series was cancelled in late 2006, in the face of strong competition from Network Ten's Video Hits and was renamed The Music Jungle.
