Playing outside can add a lot to your improvisations.

Triads, arpeggios, and pentatonics can be used to generate a lot of great outside melodies. The listener can follow them because they're familiar, but you're placing them in an unfamiliar context. The late Michael Brecker and Jerry Bergonzi are great at using them.

@SmokescreenAbyss i like to take any shape that could be made in key, and then descend or ascend. and i mean any shape. usually 2-4 notes is per shape works.

also instead of where theres a drum fill... but in between as long as its on beat, and as long as you dont remain outside for long.
