Hello. I've decided to analyse some of my favourite tracks, but I can't understand this harmony:

I know it's jazz harmony, lots of extensions, but I still can't see what's going on

左手のボイシング等があまり原曲に添えていませんが、
修正する元気が足りないのでひとまず完成版とします。
原曲はApple Music, Spotify, Bandcampあたりで聞けるので、
人類みな聞きましょう。神曲です。

What are you struggling with?

#

||this first 24 bars are basically just bass and chord in the left hand, which makes it pretty easy to pick out most of the harmony||

Is it chordiod here? What about function? There's si many extensions so it's hard to see a chord

There's not many chord extensions? Some 7ths but not much else. You may be mixing up passing notes

Thank you, brother

Can someone explain why is Bm/E?

The upper notes are clearly outlining a Bm triad, but on the down beat we have an E in the bass. The lack of either a G or G# means it's not a E9 of some kind

But why is E here? It's not the part of Bm
