Pie in the Sky: Apr 16, 2009; whoops here we go again

The bass in Get Down by Jack Beats (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3fh-yZSWoU). Can be heard specifically starting at 1:37.

I can tell it's probably a square with high resonance and a speedy LFO on the cutoff, but I can't seem to replicate the cleanliness of the sound. It's super punchy but no muddiness. How? All I can get are dirty squares that come close but are all yucky with distortion-y type nonsense in the lowend.

Ideas?

I tried messing around with that too, but I couldn't get it to sound so clean...
