Marco, it looks like you still didn't get what he is doing. Onyx is playing a wind controller that requires fingerings like a saxophone (or similar). He is playing melodic lines or triggers chords / samples with woodwind fingerings while controlling dynamics and other things with the breath controller in his mouth. He can switch between the different tracks (drums, bass, chords, solo) by selecting different targets with a button. But the melodic lines are played in realtime with his custom "wind controller". How would you play such melodic lines (like those jazz licks) - in time - simply with gestural control? How would you improvise on scales, pattern or harmonic structures? After all he's a jazz player calling his music "beat jazz". The movement looks to me secondary - it's more like a dance movement and not too much music control.
