Rossz csillag alatt született (often referred to as "The Hungarian Album") is a 2005 album by IDM artist Venetian Snares on the Planet Mu label. Inspired by Aaron Funk's recent journey to Hungary, the album title and all of the track names are in Hungarian. The translated title reads "Born under a bad star". Compared to the anger and aggression in his previous release, 'Rossz...' is a much more melodic and heartfelt effort; tunes consist of traditional strings and trumpets mixed with chaotic breakbeats in a brooding, dark manner.
According to Tiny Mix Tapes, Rossz csillag alatt született was ranked #25 on the Top 25 Albums of 2005.

[edit] Miscellanea
- The concept of the album came when Aaron Funk imagined himself as a pigeon on Budapest's Királyi Palota (Royal Palace). [1]
- "Öngyilkos vasárnap" is a rendition of the song "Szomorú vasárnap" (Gloomy Sunday) by Hungarian composer Rezső Seress, often called the Hungarian suicide song. According to urban legend, Seress's song has inspired the suicide of multiple persons, including his fiancée - the song was reportedly banned in both the United States and Hungary. [2] The song has been covered by many artists, including Billie Holiday. Her vocals are sampled in this track.
- The track "Szamár madár" samples Sir Edward Elgar's "Cello Concerto In E Minor, Op. 85"
