Have you looked into other projects of the members?
Jaki Liebezeit's drumming got a lot more minimalistic over the years, but he still has lots of great stuff out.
'Full Circle', an album by Czukay and Liebezeit with Jah Wobble is also worth checking out.
Damo Suzuki got pretty lame lately, but some of the older Network albums are fun.
Fire! sound a lot like Can at times (the two longer tracks from 'you liked me five minutes ago').
Also check out Stadtfischflex, who incorporate members of the aforementioned Faust.
Also: 'Tank' by Kreidler.
And: La! Neu - Year of the Tiger
Also: Electric Orange - Volume 10

That being said, nothing comes closes to the pure magic that is Can, but those are some very cool bands and projects with a similar rhythmic feel.
