This is called Modulation (which basically just means a planned key change), specifically "Sequential Modulation" (meaning that it changes to the next key in a sequence, and not randomly), and even more specifically a "Diatonic Sequential Modulation" (meaning that the sequence of key changes is diatonic, in your example it's a major scale).
This is not just common in electronic music, but common in most forms of pop music, and at this point has become a trope known by some as the "Truck Driver's Gear Change", although it's mostly called that when it comes at the end of a song, just repeating the chorus over and over, modulating it each time.
I, for one, actually like this technique, and you have to wonder if it's use (or overuse) is so frequent because people actually like it.
Edit: After listening to the above song with an actual instrument in front of me instead of just playing it by ear, this song goes from Gminor to Bminor, which mean it shifts keys up 2 whole steps, which makes this technically not a "gear shift," which almost always goes up 1 whole step.
