Thecontact point is on the back of the palm below the knuckles.Slap- S- The slap (or "pop 1 '')can be open or muffled.For the open slap, the base of the palm strikes eitherthe side of the drum or the edge of the head, slappingthe finger tips against the head. The muffled slap isexecuted in the same way except the fingers of theother hand rest on the head, raising the pitch.Muffled tone- M- The muffled tone (or "closed" or "flesh" tone)can be played with either a cupped hand, the heel of the hand, orfinger tips. Generally it is played by leaving the base of the palmon the rim and have the fingers contact the drum while the otherhand rest on the drum./^—
