Tower Records’ corporate voice “NO MUSIC, NO LIFE.” is the company’s social mission, embodying the theme of “Music enriches your feelings and lives” through all activities, including in-store and online. Something that expresses one’s attitude towards. This corporate voice campaign, which started in 1996, was turned into a creative series in 1997 featuring musicians. The current form of opinion advertising began in 2006, when the campaign celebrated its 100th anniversary, and 2024 will be its 29th year, with a total of approximately 500 participating artists to date.

The site to be opened this time is a web page that compiles content related to “NO MUSIC, NO LIFE.”, including an archive of posters previously published on Tower Records Online, making-of articles, interview videos, and related items. A collection of essay plans, etc. In addition, we will update essays on themes related to “NO MUSIC, NO LIFE.” every week, and we will also send out new information such as giving away posters and introducing posters by theme. Through this webpage, Tower Records will deliver fresh and profound information on the theme of “Music enriches your feelings and lives.”

To commemorate the launch of this site, we are planning to run a poster giveaway campaign titled “NO MUSIC, NO LIFE.” for three consecutive months. Detailed information will be published on the same website at a later date.
