Hi i've attempted to make this bass for a while now but i can't seem to grasp it, i don't feel confident posting my version of it as i don't have a lot of confidence yet. thank you for your time
These super-grindy patches are always hard to nail exactly, because they're often using a particular distortion or filter. However, I got pretty close with the following (I'm using Serum):
Oscillators: Two oscillators, one octave apart, with the same settings: Square wave, 4-voice unison with very little Detune, and a bit of Width. Set the lower oscillator to be a little louder than the upper.
Sub Oscillator: Sine wave at the same octave as the lower oscillator. Bypass the filter and effects, to get a pure sine wave.
Noise: Some white noise, layered in so it's just a little audible
Filter: 24 dB, max Cutoff, crank the Drive
Play a low F# and you're there. Again, these settings on a different synth may result in a different sound, so it depends on the filter. Also, you can try using a various distortions/waveshapers to get the achieved sound.

grinding bass at 0:30

Is it the round paddy bass that starts at the beginning, or grinding bass that drops around 30?
