Why do DJ's release other people's music?
Artists will often give DJs access to exclusive material and in return, all the artist is looking for is promotion. The DJs use the material to broaden his portfolio and develop there skill on the turntables while spinning at party’s, club’s, etc. The artist benefits by developing a stronger fan base and usually builds a buzz for an upcoming album release or some kind of event.
