File compression help

[musica.cards]

 I'm trying to compress a file down to less then 15.5 MB, but the smallest I can get it is 26 MB, the original file is 58 MB, and I used a ZIP folder to get it down to 26 MB, but I can't get it down any smaller, how can I reach my >15.5 MB goal?

.rar?

7z is probably the best, followed by gunzip and tarballs.
