Learners sometimes use "mix" when they want the stronger idea of things becoming one whole. "Mix" can mean the parts stay separate, while "fuse" suggests they join so closely that they seem like one thing. Learners may also think "fuse" is only about electricity; in modern English it is often used for ideas, styles, and cultures.
