Let's see...

1. Don't go out in public forums proclaiming your music sounds like crap! why would anyone hire you to produce crap music?
2. Be precise in what you want. "any tips", is soooo general that I wouldn't know where to start and where to end. Who are you, what exactly you want to do (music, is not valid, what music, what level, what kind, what country, eveything counts), what can you do, and so on.
3. I'm not being a smartass, honestly, I'm trying to help. I've seen SO many ads wanting jobs for musicians, which lack the very basics (for example, posting that you're a composer looking for a job, but don't have any links to your music. Who would care enough to check you out really? and so on)...
4. A while back I made this thread exactly to asnwer your type of question. I hope it helps: How to make it... - CGEmpire
It is a tutorial of sorts, with advice, general and more precise on getting into the music industry.

5. Never expect a top 10 list of advices on what to do to enter the music business. Lists like these go up to No. 5. :p

(PS. your music on soundclick is not bad at all! why would it be crap? Don't ever say your music is crap please!)
Sorry, I have a tendency to be over critical of my own work and will usually nit pick on the smallest details. When I am not being overly critical though, I do think my music is decent (it's actually kind of good if I take in to account that I have only been composing for about three months now and have absolutely no formal musical training). Anyway, I am sorry for not being specific enough when seeking your advice, I was looking for tips on how to break into the videogame industry and what I should do now (I am 15) to prepare myself.
