I honestly don't know the theory behind this thing either, I like to think of it as an ambiguous thing where you initially think it's in one key (E min) but then it moves a half step up to an F major and suddenly you're in F lydian which directly transports us into A minor. It's only in the second measure in the A min part that an actual key change happens, as the chord becomes A# major and we're in A# lydian/D minor. I like playing around with linear changes like that, and making use of notes that exist in two different scales to create ambiguity, but (as you can see) I lack the terminlology to describe it properly.
