Arpeggios, when used effectively, can make even the weirdest chord progressions sound cool. Arpeggios are essentially chords, just played in single note patterns, and being conscious of which arpeggios are present over each chord you're improvising over will provide you with a wide array of musical options as you craft your solos. Work on these examples and use this format as a framework to try different exercises between arpeggios or other scale positions you want to work on.
