What specifically are your concerns about the quality of the video? Offhand the focus looks pretty poor, but have you tried changing the focus? And are you using any filters?

Problem I find with most of the video clips is music. Monotonous irritating tunes distract from the content.

Very true, but the question was filming tips

Next thing will be music ;)

I found you best shots are also the simplest ones: slow, straight moves along one direction. It is extremely hard to get a smooth and nice result when combining complex movements, so my recommendation is "keep it simple". I find that the results are often bad when panning with the Mavic, probably because the gain is way too high on the yaw axis by default. I do avoid this or I use tripod mode instead. I would also try avoiding to change the gimbal rotation speed during your shots; again I found it requires a lot of practice to get that smooth gimbal movement. You can change the settings that drive the sensitivity of the gimbal wheel, that helps.
I'm far from being an expert myself, so that's just my 2 cents.
