There's the DUB package manager for D:

And apparently (although I guess I never noticed this) the meta-data
for each package is called a "record" (a common, albeit old, term for
a database entry).


Slight disclaimer: It's not actually called like that, but Russel implied that this would make sense.

However, the loose resemblance of an audio cassette in case of the DUB logo and a 7" record in case of the vibe.d logo does fall in the same category I guess. ;)

But seriously, it's a pity that "record" is not an adequate name for a DUB package -- calling it "package" always makes for confusion wrt. D packages/modules. So if anyone has a better term that would be awesome...

Regarding the dub music genre, it has to be said that although it is the root for dubstep and in turn ... brostep, it's usually not really comparable result-wise and I have a strong desire to avoid putting the word "step" somewhere in proximity of "DUB" ;)
