Awesomely Geeky Dad Dicken Schrader Collaborates With Kids For Depeche Mode Cover (VIDEO)

All the ingredients for a classic embarrassing dad moment are there: a geeky father, a tight v-neck shirt, a videocamera in the basement, an old Yamaha keyboard and a record from 1983.

But somehow, Colombian video artist and kick-ass dad Dicken Schrader was able to avoid a common fatherhood pitfall in an awesome new music video covering Depeche Mode's "Everything Counts," the latest in a series of adorable videos from the dad-kid band "Dicken feat. Milah and Korben."

Milah and Korben are no stranger to Depeche Mode, either: they previously teamed up with their dad to cover "Strangelove" and "Shake the Disease."

Make sure to check out the group's YouTube page for new videos!

The one who wrote the article is such looser, why "geeky" and why the rest of the pejorative descriptions? I mean, this dad playing with his kids should be father of the year to say the least. Instead of buying a Nintendo or loosing his kid behind an iPod touch (totally waste to time in leisure). Who ever wrote the article has some loose screws and need some sort of therapy. Be careful.

It's all about the recorder tapping the green thing with the bells on it. Fantastic!

At what point does the geeky dad come in? I only see a cool, hot dad.

Totally agree, when did cool, fun and obviously loving equate to being geeky?

He's not even that handsome. But being a good dad makes him more handsome. It's a package deal.
