The following is a list of musical and philosophical differences between Jazz and Fizz. Some of the characteristics listed under "Jazz" might not necessarily apply to [[Jazz Imperial Complex|Jazz-identifying]] genres like Nu Jazz or Jazztronica, but that's something for them to reckon with.

|Fundamental.
|-
|'''Live vs Recorded'''
|'''Live music''' is more important than recorded music. The recording is understood to be a "snapshot" of the live performance.
|'''Live music and recorded music''' are equally important. The recording is understood to be the platonic ideal of the song, with live performances being instantiations of it.
|-
|'''Song Structure'''
|Jazz traditionally contains 2 instances of the "head" with at least 1 solo in the middle. There are no hard rules for what happens around or in between those sections.
|There are basically '''no rules''', but most Fizz can be understood as having verse-chorus song structure. Fizz frequently features bridges, buildups and drops, and occasionally features breakdowns and aftersections.
|-
|'''Instrumentation'''
|'''Acoustic/Electric''' instruments are featured primarily, but there are no hard rules.
|'''Electronic''' sounds and instruments are featured primarily, but there are no hard rules.
|-
|'''Authority'''
|
|If a song is in line with the [[Torus of Fizzosophy|Fizzosophy]] and the composer identifies it as such, it's Fizz. Not a definition that '''Charlie Kirk''' would be a fan of, but that's how it is.
Fizz is a constitutional genre. The community keeps things in check, but according to the doctrine of Fizzola Scriptura, The Torus of Fizzosophy is the only infallible authority for what counts as Fizz.
|-
|'''Tropes'''
|2-5-1 cadences, chromaticism
|VI VII I cadences, melodic hooks
