im quite new in music theory and i really dont understand what he is doing here.
is he changing the key after every chord?
he talks about c minor being the root note. after that he switches to c# which would be off the key?
what kind of chord progession is this? does it have a name? i have a really hard time figuring out what is happening here :( it sounds so good tho!
thanks for helping!

He is doing this:
Cm Db => Fm Gb => Bbm Cb => Ebm Fb => ...
What I hear is a continuous modulation up in perfect fourths. The chords Cm Db Fm can be heard in the key of F minor. The F minor chord is then re-interpreted as the Vm chord of the next key (Bbm) etc. So what you have is
key
Fm: Cm Db Fm
Bbm: Fm Gb Bbm
Ebm: Bbm Cb Ebm

@MattL already pointed out the three chord pattern.
With Roman numerals the basic harmonic template is v VI i. That's a minor v. The chords are diatonic, but technically non-functional. I only mention this as a kind of progression. When chords are treated non-functionally you can use unconventional root progressions that aren't like familiar patterns such as ii V I, and they can sound pretty cool with a more drifting feel.
Then a harmonic pattern is repeat by transposing you can call it a harmonic sequence. Sequences can be either diatonic or chromatic. In this case the sequence is chromatic and shifts into different modes.
Instead of having a more common name like turnaround ii V I or substitution ii bII I you could call this kind of progression...
A diatonic, non-functional, sequential progression.
That is a mouthful, but it really does describe the kind of progression.
