Fusion
In the present, there are some Aboriginal singers that fuse the type of songs from the western world to the Aboriginal culture. One of the most famous ones would be Yothu Yindi and his band. They combined the sounds and instrumentation of western rock and roll music with aboriginal music that dates back thousands of years. He has put traditional dances and instruments in his music. That way, he is fusing the two cultures together. The music and language for each tribe was different but some were similar. The languages have very special names that are very different.
