The scene was well done, absolutely, but I don't think the song fitting well is really the point. I felt that the scene was tailored to the song. I don't know if that's often the case in TV or not, but it irked me a little. Maybe that has to do with my prejudice against the genre, but I think it's more that I'm displeased with the inclusion of something in the show for purely pop-culture reasons. I can't think of too many other instances of that.
Most of the other music in the show, as far as I can recall, has been either songs that are already firmly implanted in the pop-culture canon, or jesse's stuff, which seems to tend towards underground hip hop that I've never heard of, but that works to establish his character in some ways and also to set scenes well (parties in his house, for instance). The dubstep, on the other hand, was more of a quick ploy for a pop culture smile. They certainly weren't listening to it.
