Henrik Carlsen (born November 30, 1959) is a Danish composer, record producer and keyboardist.
Carlsen was born in Copenhagen, Frederiksberg and grew up in Brøndby. He was a founding member of Street Beat in 1982 and led it until it was disbanded in 1993.
As a composer, he has written or co-written pop-songs like "Ring A Ling" (Tiggy), "Diddley Dee" (Cartoons), "Easy Come Easy Go" (Los Umbrellos), and worked as producer or re-mixer with Barcode Brothers, E-Type, Blå Øjne and many more.
He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2001. He retired from the music business and worked as a school teacher until 2016.
In 2016 he returned to music and released his first solo album "Street Beat Revisited". The album was a hommage to his former band Street Beat, and he played all instruments himself recording the entire album in his own bedroom.
