As Sweden is known for one of the most cheerful audiences in Kraftwerk concerts, Kraftwerk was confronted with a crazy, chaotic audience. Some were clapping and singing to the songs, and some were screaming and pushing other people because they were drunk. The Olympen was the most popular venue at that time which explains why some of the attendees went by the saying "Carpe Diem". Right before Computer Love, Ralf made a speech where he asked the audience to "push a little less" because the front part of the audience was getting crushed by those behind them. They didn't do what Ralf asked them to do, so the band called the police. They did it more than once, so it can be considered that they did it between the songs. This dilemma didn't stop Kraftwerk to play a dedicated concert. Fritz did some unique beat drops here and there and Ralf called out the audience to sing with him in Pocket Calculator. I love how Henning kept switching the bass and the arpeggio around at 1:23:51. It reminds me of the UK '91 performances of Pocket Calculator where Fernando always switched the octave of the pluck sequence. Unfortunately, Music Non Stop is missing because this recording comes from two 12 inch vinyls which together have a maximum time length of an hour and 28 minutes, so Music Non Stop doesn't fit in due to time length limitations. According to an edition of the Aktivität fanzines, the video projectors suddenly turned off at the beginning of Music Non Stop. They stopped the music, turned the projectors back on and started playing the song again.
Lund was a bit less of a dedicated concert than Copenhagen, so the recording quality isn't as good. I was able to sharpen the sound, but boosting it more would result the noise getting louder. Doing it had difficulites because the frequency range was inconsistent. The frequency range got lower at the vinyl side flips and in Pocket Calculator. Boosting the elements in the low frequencies was less difficult. Music Non Stop may be on the master tape, but it's absent in the 12 inch vinyl source because of time length limitations.
