Tower Records Makes Its Return By Relaunching As An Online Store
Getty Image After closing in 2006, the music store is back with livestream concerts and a digital version of the ‘Tower House!’ magazine. …

Back in 2006, Tower Records was forced to close down its 200 stores across the world two years after filing for bankruptcy. Now, over fourteen years later, the franchise is making its return, now as an online store. According to Bay Area’s ABC7, Tower Records can be now be found on the internet. Consumers who visit the site will find scheduled livestream concerts as well as a digital version of the company’s Tower Pulse! magazine. The store will also sell its usual vinyl, cassette, and CD collection.
Tower Records initially planned its relaunch to take place during this year’s SXSW music festival, but the coronavirus pandemic put the kibosh on that. Danny Zeijdel, Tower Records CEOe, spoke about the recent change. “That has been met with tremendous success,” he said, “A lot of people are so happy taking pictures of when they receive an order from Tower Records posting it on Instagram.” The company also hosts interviews on Instagram Live with rising artists.
The store’s online relaunch will unfortunately occur without its founder Russ Solomon, who passed away back in 2018. The Sacramento Bee reported at the time that Solomon died of a heart attack while watching that year’s Oscars award show with his family.

AZSH rises through the storm with an unstoppable spirit in latest release “On My Way”
AZSH (pronounced “Ash”), a Miami-based dance pop soul artist, has a new single called “On My Way” that’s a declaration of strength rather than a typical song. Using her unique “Miami Pop” style, AZSH combines sultry vocals, emotional honesty, and cutting-edge production to create a moving song that speaks to people who feel let down, unsure, or as if their dreams have been put on hold. “On My Way,” is a reflective anthem with a smooth 110 BPM groove. Centered on resilience and personal evolution, it’s a soundtrack for the in-between moments perfect for listeners moving forward with purpose.
“On My Way” is all about not giving up. It captures the emotional weight of disappointment, getting through hard days, and the will to keep going no matter what. AZSH is honest about problems and turns them into strength, using each setback as a reason to grow. The song shows a quiet confidence that grows over time. It shows that change doesn’t happen all at once, it takes time, belief, and inner strength.
The track sound fits with AZSH’s artistic style. Her voice is warm and expressive, flowing perfectly over a smooth, soulful, and uplifting production. The music conveys a sense of movement, which aligns with the themes of progress and moving forward. This song works just as well when you’re alone, thinking about things, as it does when you’re listening to an uplifting playlist to improve your mood.
“On My Way” is an important part of AZSH’s growing story as an artist and storyteller. It represents freedom, change, and happiness, not as ideas, but as real things that come from hard work and determination. In “On My Way,” AZSH shows that being strong doesn’t mean failing, it means being able to bounce back after each failure. This song is for people who know they haven’t reached their goal yet but are sure they are making progress toward it.
