It sounds like you're asking about a tuning issue. Have you seen this video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYezqXihmM6Lo6s

@Rashad Harris My advice is to get good sounds from the drums. I worked with a guy about 15 years ago who sampled my timbales, congas, and bongo. I don't know what he ever did with it, but we went through a bunch of possibilities. For example, I played bongo sounds with one finger, three fingers, rattan mallet reverse with pencil grips, sticks, and different brush implements. The same thing for the other drums ... sticks, hands, dampening, wide open, etc. If you are not a percussionist, higher one to make sound packs. A student in college will work great. Then you have your own sounds. If you are a percussionist, consider the traditional rhythms played on the instrument and adapt it to the style -- usually by taking out the filler sounds and featuring the stronger sounds. For example, a few of the examples you shared have bongo parts. The parts are like a martillo pattern but played with all open tones. The traditional pattern is modified to make a new sound without losing the so much of the traditional rhythm. Another thing you can do ... treat congas like the drum set. Use the open tone as the kick and the slap as the snare. This sounds great when the drum set is playing a hi-hat pattern (with 16ths or something like that).
