Need help on thumb, mute and slap practise

[ondray]

I have found a nice slap and pop riff to practise. It's a soundtrack for a flash game. Here is the link to the game.

But I can't seem to locate the necessary dead notes in the riff. Below is a rough tab i made. The rhythm may be wrong cause the soundtrack was too fast but the notes are quite accurate, only without the important dead notes cause everytime i try to slap the A notes on the last two bars, the string kept sustaining.

 

Can anyone help me out by tabbing the riff?

 

I have just started learning slap and pop by the way.

 

Thanks a lot in advance.

[Mr. Phil]

what is a quaver? and a semi quaver?

 

do you mean quarter and EIGHTH notes? no such thing as a semi-note

[mound]

Quaver =eighth note

Semiquaver = Sixteenth Note
