As far as I could tell, word2vec seems more mathematical, which is rather nice.
At least I see more transparent math in the web-page.
Maybe this helps a bit?

SemanticVectors has always rather pleasant for the LSI/LSA-like approach, but 
precisely this is mathematically opaque. 
Maybe it's more a question of presentation.
