How To Compose COMPLEX Prog Riffs! (Prog Metal Riff Lesson)

I get a lot of questions about constructing complex prog metal riffs. This is a very advanced skill that takes years to develop. In this prog metal riff lesson I want to break down one of my own complex riffs and offer some advice on how to compose these kinds of riffs.

This riff comes from my song Escape Velocity. Watch the full playthrough video here:
