Just of the top of my head (I have no time nor the resources to research 
for more details):
Brahms: Ein deutches Requiem
        his organ chorales
Frank Martin: many influences (he decided to become a composer after  
       hearing the `Mattheus Passion' when he was 12)
Ottorino Respighi: I once heard a piece for organ based on a choral 
       prelude by Bach
Shostakovich: preludes and fugues
Mendelssohn: most of his organ music (and probably much of his other  
       music)

I am afraid a well-researched list would include almost all music 
written after 1750, say.
You could better ask for music NOT influenced by Bach :-)
