The second artist's set is certainly more ambitious, grandiose - but ends up a little too melodramatic. His first piece initially impresses but the high registers then start to grate as they meander about without real focus.
I was initially more 'wowed' by the second artist, but ended preferring the first, being more restrained and better on repeat listens, keeping in mind there's a game to play in the foreground.
Perhaps the second artist is more suited to cutscenes or set-pieces, whatever shape these might be in the game. On what's here however, the first is your better bet for a general set of background tunes.
