I love the 35/1.4 ASPH.I use the 35mm the most of any lens I own, and I cannot recommend the 35/1.4 ASPH enough. I know the Nokton is a half stop faster and offers great performance, but the 35/1.4 ASPH does it all...it is very fast, extremely sharp even wide open, yet it is compact, light, takes 46mm filters, has great ergonomics and excellent bokeh. Rather than having a slow lens and a fast lens, I think you might be better off just selling the Nokton and getting the 35/1.4 ASPH. It is one of the few "do it all" lenses.
If you are set on having two lenses, the Summarit that Guy mentioned is probably a very good choice. It is small, light, cheaper and only a half-stop slower than the summicron. It also comes coded, which is nice if you currently use or plan to use an M8.
Cheers,
