They asked the person who owns them about them, claiming they were gifts given to them just after they signed to warp. In the release edit notes they were trying to figure out what year to attribute these to, it looks like they settled on late 1998 or 1999 for convenience. That would explain the MHTRTC credit.
I don't know what to think about this, I think bootlegs are neat anyway but the whole vibe of these feels slightly more legit. The person on Discogs said that the owner of them claims that they are not only legit, but that the band would confirm their legitimacy if asked. Maybe we can get in contact with the person on Discogs and someone can hit up MDG?

Also I wonder why 'Volume 1' is titled when the content was complete at this time.

The original Poppy Seed track was released in 1998 though. It could have been remixed that year and then not given a public release until 2001.
