Conga techniques 1 - bass - open - slap

Good sounds are essential if you really want to master an instrument. But what is immediately clear to every trumpeter or saxophonist does not always seem to be clear to everyone in the drum scene. But music comes from differences, from clearly separated and clean tones.
Bass, open and slap are the basic hits on the conga. They must be mastered. Here I try to give detailed instructions so that each shot can be executed correctly.
In Part 2, I want to explain shots like “muffled” and “tips”. Later, “Floating Hand” and “Hand-to-Hand Techniques” will also be shown, as well as stick techniques and stick-hand variations.
