Estas Tonne, is concentrating very often in permuting the chords of the basic harmonic triad of harmonic minor E.g. 3M7-6m-2m , and with varying arpegios and ostinatos for each one. Then extending it to 4M-3M7-6m-2m, Thus alternating melodic chrd transitions like 6m-$m or 2m-4M , and adding chromatic transitions like 3M7-4M.
Finally after spending much time on that extending it to the 6 harmonic cycle
3M7-6m-2m-5M-1M-4M
Some times instead of extending to the harmonic 6-cycle, he transposes harmonically e.g. to
6M7-2m-5m-1M7-4M-BbM7.
He may alternate the 3M7-6m fast or double the duration of each chord of the harmonic pair
3M7-6m, and get the harmony in slow motion.
The overall result is that by taking a well kown diatonic or chromatic diatonic harmony of a song with the arpeggios and ostinatos (riffs) the result is a 20- or even 55-minute musical improvisational piece!
The key ideas are
1) Harmonic structure =minimal (e.g. a triad Bm-Em-Am but varied with 7th and 6ths)
2) Rhythm, fast but chord duration=maximal
3) Soloing=minimal
4) Chord Harping=maximal
5) Octaves variation across the fretboard=maximal (like improvising one note on many octaves)
6) Volume variations=maximal
7) Pitch ascension, descending by octaves=maximal
8) Ocean feeling=maximal
