The thing I think people misunderstand about grading techno is that there are a few levels by which an electronic song reaches greatness. That is, of course, true with almost every musical form. But what changes between musical forms is what those levels consist of.
It would take me too long to research and relate the nature of how classical music is most often scored by experts. But it would be a worthwhile project I might have to embark on.
But, in short for now, Electronica reaches its highest marks when it excels in sound creation and arrangement. Sound creation is the creative use of electronic equipment and software to invent sounds that have not been heard before. This is the genius of The Crystal Method. Arrangement is perfected when the sounds are arrayed in an interesting, possibly new, pattern or when the interchange of various sound patterns is especially significant. The Prodigy makes a good example for this element.
