You find those chords in the key of D major.

My guess is that many self taught electronic musicians don't really care about theory so much, but rather just lay down what they think sounds good to them. I'm not saying this particular composer doesn't necessarily "know what he/she's doing".

I guess it's also not that uncommon to shuffle chords in choruses and bridges so that a D maj song wouldn't necessarily start the chorus from D maj.

I'm self taught, so I'm not really an expert here.
