Claus Norreen (born 5 June 1970, Charlottenlund, Denmark) is a Danish musician and record producer known for being a part of the band Aqua, which sold around 33 million records. He left the band in September 2016 to take on other musical ventures, but still considers the remaining members of the band to be like family to him.

Claus Noreen was born in Charlottenlund, near Copenhagen. Before he seriously started making music, he had always wanted to become a chemist. Other than school, one of his biggest interests was electropop music.Hence, he bought a pair of keyboards and started playing industrial techno.

When he finished school he started to work in his sisters' clothing store. The work in the store inspired him and influenced his style of music. In 1989, he met Søren Rasted and moved his music instrument to his residence.

Claus married Danish journalist Siggy Norreen (née Madsen) in 2001. Their son Elliott was born in February 2003. The couple have since separated.
