This scene is about a lost child, roaming a dangerous world on her own.
I remember the music. I don't necesarily interpret it the same way that he does but only concerning the above statement. Zoe evidently escaped to New Cap City when Vergis tried to download the chip. I saw the waltz as nothing more than the fighting and even the virtual world of New Cap City was for Zoe nothing but the whimsey of her childhood.
Because they returned to that deep, heavily bass drum/techno beat when Zoe held the man with the gun in her grasp (figuratively held in her grasp) and kept him from doing anything, even in the 'real world.' After she killed him (was that just in New Cap City or also in reality) the music returned to the waltz. It was more a mockery of her adversaries and the virtual world than pointing out that she was lost. And returning to the more serious techno beat pointed out her power in controlling others via their holobands.
