I think you had a typo in there, and what you want to write was:

No-one should care if the track was made by an alien in a white suit if the track was quality.

Because you know that some people will keep on saying "Oh, that track was produced by XXX, who is a cheese producer, so it's a cheesy track".

House producers and Disco producers just know how to effectively use vocals for some reason. The vocals that the better ones have used are just raw emotional power. Who can complain using Barbara Tucker or Robert Owens (tho he is being used in Breakbeat tracks). Tho it has already been done by Oliver Lieb, he's crossed over the lines from trance to house to techno. It would be interesting if Francois K lost his mind one day and said I'm releasing a trance tune, the house purists would be crying in their beer.

I agree with you guys about someone like DJ Sammy. It would be hard for a mainstream cheddar trance producer to go to house. House dj's tend to be a little anti-trance. However, a funky house dj producing a good trance track would probably work. Most trance dj's that I know don't have much knowledge of the house genre. They usually push into progressive, but not house as much. I like funky house, but I don't really know any of the producers. The producer would have to get a big dj to play it out and build the popularity first, but I know a lot of people that will pick up records randomly out of a certain style at the record shop. Get it into some stores and it's bound to be picked up, if it's good.

Another option is getting a big name trance producer to do a remix or get it on a reputable label. If I see a record on Tsunami or Release I always listen to it. There are several labels that are like that for me, and I'm sure it's the same for others.

That depends. I hate disco diva circuit house vocals. Overly flaired out ghettoized crap. There is a fine line between a great house vocal and a terrible one.
