Where do I even start to get something like the drop at 1:05? How would you make something like this without it just sounding like mud?

Thanks in advance!

Main component of that seems to be lots of unison to my ear. Filtered square wave with loads of detuned unison voices (panned centrally) gets me most of the way there. Keytracked 24db bandpass (as opposed to lowpass) seems to reduce the bigger volume peaks and troughs you get from phase cancellation while compression cleans up the rest.

But yeah, the key part of that sound is unison IMO.
