I think there are three or four different recordings of Kanon Pokajanen; this is probably the most recent one. It's really one of Arvo's best works, actually many choir melodies on this one could be black metal or d-beat riffs. 2016 cd on Harmonia Mundi.

VYRYV x Morbid Debasement - Split
VYRYV is Lee Stokoe (Culver, etc, regular readers you know my worship) playing Posh Isolation-style synth ambient; Morbid Debasement plays more dark-ambient-ish with organ. Cool stuff. 2019 2X3" cdr.

Shady Glyphs - Meditations On Caligari's Shadow
Amazing devotional fourth-world pagan ambient ritual similar to Vibracathedral Orchestra and Million Brazilians by this unknown Yorkshire project (though I suspect an Ashtray Navigations connection...). 2019 cd on Memoirs Of An Aesthete.

Controlled Death – Music For The Death Cult Church
I don't know if this has been posted online, so here it is. 2022 sold out tape on Advaita Records featuring some of His purest evil/unnerving stuff, this time focusing on church organ on the first side.
Download
PS: He's just released a new one on Deathbed Tapes, so my worries that he had stopped playing as Controlled Death or in general are now gone.

Dom Minasi String Quartet – Dissonance Makes The Heart Grow Fonder
If Django Reinhardt played improvised this is what it would sound like. An avant-garde improvised - but also "structured" - string quartet with guitar destroying everything. 2009 cd on Konnex Records.

Phill Niblock – Music By Phill Niblock
Hello to everyone. Thank you for all the messages you have sent asking whether I am ok. To be honest, I am not. Since the last time last November many things have happened, including getting the covid, but that was the least serious. The strain on my mental health is very big and I now take anti-depressants and anti-psychotics to get me through. I can't promise I'll write frequently, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone.
So here's an awesome majestic droning minimal classic masterpiece by Phill Niblock. One track is a string quartet, the other one is two flutes but on an epic scale. 1993 cd on XI.
