I saw the first performance in the clip live yesterday. Aepril is an incredible artist. She also did the first rendition of goth cane that I've seen, hysterical.

That was really well done and interesting fusion. I actually liked it a lot, I think because I liked the music and there was enough belly dancing in it to look recognizably "belly dance."

The Spanish-Arabic fusion was terrific, too!

Good examples of fusion so far.

No clip of it though...

Thank you for posting that vid--that goth cane dance is some sort of awesome.
