Do you think these could've come from Paradinas, Rix-Martin and friends, and the ones they smashed were fakes/copies just to piss off all the haters online giving them shit for trying to sell them?

The timing seems way to coincidental to me.

What I'm wondering is:

Couldn't someone have just hooked a tape deck up to a computer, uploaded the full album rips of these tapes that are currently on Youtube, and just hit record? Then, print the hi-res scans of the covers off of bocpages and maybe photoshop them if necessary?

Not doubting the OP's sincerity at all, believe me, but I could do that right now and drop them off at my local Goodwill.

I don't think Paradinas would put the tapes in a goodwill. I still think they smashed the real tapes.

This is certainly a possibility. A lot of effort for a troll though and these tracks on Closes are not on yt. Who knows?

I'm sorry, all I really know right now is that they're off tape and on my computer processing. I'd check, but I'm far too excited.
