Founded by Nate Laurence in 2015, Pluralistic Records is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, and releases music that crosses between Chicago, Detroit, disco house, and tech house, described simply as house. The label is committed to diversity and creating community through rhythm, and each artist is asked to donate a percentage of sales to social justice programs that support youth and the arts. It states it is not about profits, though it cannot be called a non-profit.
