The only player I could find that plays this file at the "correct" speed is XMP, but I believe it does so for the wrong reason. As there are at least 7 ways a SoundTracker file can be interpreted, it's difficult to find a set of heuristics that works for all songs - XMP may fail it some, OpenMPT may fail at some others.

Either way, this file is most likely a bad rip, as the same song available on AMP plays correctly: https://amp.dascene.net/downmod.php?index=60803

When in doubt, the AMP version of early MODs should be preferred over ModLand or other sources.

I will close this issue as a known-good version of the song exists.
